Chivu Will Sign For Inter, Girlfriend Reveals
Cristian Chivu is a couple of signatures away from completing his
dream move to Inter, and out of all people it was the Romanian
defenders TV presenter girlfriend who broke the
news.
Cristian wil join Massimo Morattis club for 15m Euro, Adelina
Elisei revaled to Romanian TV channel Antena Tre.
His will was decisive, he even agreed to lower his wage demands.
He will earn 4.8m Euro rather than 5.8m Euro per season, but he
will sign a five-year deal rather than a four-year one.
Neither Roma nor Inter were prepared to comment on the authenticity
of the claim but, assuming that it is in fact true, then this would
effectively signal the end of one of the most protracted and
ill-tempered transfer wrangles of the summer.
Since it first became apparent that the Nerazzurri and Chivu had
eyes for each other, Roma refused to budge on their valuation for
the player and even encouraged Barcelona and Real Madrid to join an
auction.
The 26-year-old became public enemy #1 in Rome after his refusal to
join Real in light of a pact with Inter - the fear amongst the
Gialorossi fans being that his illicit love affair with their
northern rivals would convince him to sit out the final year of his
contract at the Olimpico, only to leave on a free transfer and thus
effectively cost the club 18 million Euros in lost transfer
fees.
If and when Chivus girlfriends comments are confirmed, this would
arguably represent the most favourable and conversely also least
messy resolution for all involved all things considered.
