Several clubs are currently planning to recruit the 25 -year -old striker, who has impressed in Ligue 1 and in the Champions League with Lille this season. But any transfer will have a high price, as inter -Milan learned.
The Gazzetta dello Sport reports that the Nerazzurri took the first step to recruit David for free this summer, offering him a five -year contract worth 5 million euros per year.
But it is far from the value that the attacker has set himself. He wishes a contract of 8 million euros per year, plus a bonus at the signing of 10 million euros. In total, it targets a transfer of 50 million euros to Inter.
Jonathan David has an interesting option
David's contractual requirements seem to push him to the Premier League, where six clubs follow his file Manchester United, Tottenham Hotspur, West Ham United, Chelsea, Liverpool and Newcastle United all wish to offer the attacker, according to I Sport, but rumors also circulate on the Arsenal potential.
Despite its apparently generous requirements, a total envelope of 50 million euros remains relatively modest for a center-forward of its level. In many cases, this amount would only cover part of the transfer compensation for such a player, all these teams that have spent similar sums for a number 9 in recent years.
Jonathan David towards the start
David, on the other hand, told CBS Sports that he wanted to evolve at the top of football. “” If I go, I have to give myself to play at the highest level ”he said. “”

“” I know it's an important year, it's an important decision, so I will make a wise choice. The Canadian striker race has indeed been launched.
