I think a deal of this magnitude has to be right in all departments.
I haven't seen him play a full 90 minutes but would be suit Pep's vision of a striker in terms of pressing?
In my humble opinion the club tend to stay away from players with an aota of bigger than their boots mentality.
From what I gather there hasn't been any suggestion that we our his first choice. Again I think the club tends to favour those who are 100 percent behind paying for us. Perhaps he is a Madrid fan boy.
Like others have said I'm sure the club will already know how the land lies.
