Milan are even believed to have submitted an offer to Manchester United; however, Cassano doubts that any Italian club can afford the forward’s salary, which is reportedly in the region of €12 million per year.
“We are talking about a fantastic player; I go crazy for him,” Cassano told Viva El Futbol via Football Italia. “One and a half years ago, not three or five, he had finished the season with 28 goals playing as an attacking winger.
“The problem is that he earns €12m per season. Who can afford him in Italy? Nobody can. He would be fantastic for Milan and Juventus, but I don’t think he can join our league.”
