Kalinic deal delayed?

By Football Italia staff

The delay in finalising Nikola Kalinic’s move to Milan is reportedly due to Fiorentina being unconvinced by the method of payment.

The striker is believed to be close to joining the Rossoneri, but so far no deal has been agreed between the two clubs.

Today Kalinic refused to turn up for training, seemingly in an effort to force the move through, but FirenzeViola is reporting further delays to the deal.

According to the website, the Viola aren’t convinced by the forms of payment being offered, nor by the financial guarantees the Diavolo are currently offering.

Given they have signed Giovanni Simeone, Fiorentina feel they very much hold all the cards, as they’re now covered in attack whatever happens.

It’s still likely that Kalinic will join Milan, but the Rossoneri will have to offer a different method of paying the rumoured €25m plus bonuses.
