Sneijder Will Have To Take Pay Cut To Join Liverpool

Wesley Sneijder’s chances of joining Liverpool in January rest upon whether he will take 100k a week pay cut.

The Dutchman has fallen out of favour with Inter Milan after not being able to agree a new deal and Liverpool are interested in signing him. Sneijder is current netting £6 million a year after tax which is way over the Reds’ budget.

The 28 year old is close to a move to Turkish side Galatasary after they agreed a £6.3 million deal with Inter, but it is well known that he would rather move to the Premier League.

Italian sources have revealed the Reds ARE one of the clubs he would take a wage drop for.

Now Kop boss Brendan Rodgers hopes the Holland ace’s admission that his mind is not on the money sees him pick Merseyside.

Sneijder said: “It’s not a question of money. I have time and won’t be rushed.

“My doubts have nothing to do with the offers. I don’t want to feel forced into a life decision in a short space of time.

Galatasaray president Unal Aysal wants a weekend decision. He said: “We’ll wait another three of four days.”
