As the club continues to look for a new playmaker after the exit of the Turkish playmaker Hakan Calhanoglu, the name of Nikola Vlasic appeared on the managers' radar, as per different sources. The attacking midfielder is a Croatian international, 23 years old and capable of playing as a second striker, and even a winger if needed.
In the last few days it was reported that CSKA Moscow does not seem to be keen to any proposal other than an immediate sale. But now, Tuttomercatoweb.com suggests otherwise.
In fact, the outlet claims that CSKA Moscow is now willing to drop from their initial pricetag of 35 million euros and would be even willing to sell the player on a different formula other than that of a definitive sale.
The financial request is now 'just under 30 million euros', writes the source.
The Russian outfit has also opened up to a loan with obligation to buy. There is even also a possibility of concluding a deal over a loan with option to buy that would turn into obligation under some simple terms and conditions, concludes the website.
