I think players like Hazard would place different criteria for the different clubs he has to choose from. If it is true he is said to be stalling on wage demands, its more likely his agent is fucking around with City since he knows how rich our owner is and has an inkling of the current wages of our players.
but for a club like Spurs where it is thought that the highest wage is what 80-100k a week, that's the amount he would ask for, but then he would also include conditions like Champions League qualification, playing time and purchasing additional players of quality to add to the team..he's still young, he doesn't need to be the highest paid player so soon..
Its like the Alexis Sanchez transfer, when we tried getting him they demanded 40mil and huge wages but then he eventually went to Barcelona for something like 25-30mil..
I don't think he's too worried about the wages, but his agent is simply trying to get the best for his client, and I think the Belhanda rumor could very well have been put out by City, to try and speed up the negotiation process..
I mean really, if Belhanda is actually considered to be as good as Hazard, why would we even be trying to spend an extra 23mil to get Hazard?
