According to Fabrizio Romano, Sevilla has rejected Napoli`s enhanced offer of €17 million for Juanlu Sanchez. The Spanish club is reportedly seeking a fee exceeding €20 million, along with a 20% share of any future sale, a condition that Wolverhampton Wanderers might be willing to meet.
Earlier reports on Wednesday indicated that Napoli had increased their bid to align with the offer from Wolverhampton Wanderers.
Juanlu`s Transfer Demands Evolve Amidst Bidding Competition
However, Fabrizio Romano and Matteo Moretto now confirm that the Premier League club`s offer was not as previously suggested, leading to Sevilla`s rejection of Napoli`s latest proposal. Sevilla is firm on their asking price of €20 million, which includes various add-ons, in addition to a 20% sell-on clause, terms that Napoli is reportedly disinclined to accept.
The Serie A giants typically avoid transfer agreements that include significant sell-on clauses, particularly one as substantial as 20%.
Juanlu, a right-back, will celebrate his 22nd birthday later this month. He recently extended his contract with Sevilla, securing his tenure until June 2029. A graduate of Sevilla`s youth academy, he has already accumulated 59 appearances in LaLiga.
