Announcement made over Spain midfielder: Liverpool will have to pay this to sign him
LIVERPOOL may have to pay around £15.4million to sign Malaga midfielder Ignacio Camacho.
Malaga now completely own Ignacio Camacho
The Reds have been linked with the 26-year-old after his impressive La Liga season.
The economic rights to Camacho were jointly owned by Malaga and investment group Futbol Global Management.
However yesterday the Spanish side completed a deal which gave them 100% control of the midfielder’s rights.
Malaga president Sheikh Abdullah Bin Nasser Al Thani said: “Malaga Club de Futbol has bought the economic rights for Camacho.
“Camacho is today 100% property of Malaga Club de Futbol, and we want him to remain an important player in the project of our club.”
Liverpool fans stuck without plane
And Valencia-based newspaper Super Deporte say any clubs interested in Camacho will have to pay his £15.4m (€20m) release clause or a fee close to that number.
Last week, the Spaniard admitted he wants to be the person that decides his future.
He said: "I don't know if I'll have the last word on my way out or if the club have any obligation to accept a certain amount, but I'd like to be the one to decide."
