This is where I thought he might end up....with a year left on his contract and his age 29....that is a pretty hefty fee and a nice pay raise...normally when a player hits 30 the transfer fees come down a considerable amount for obvious reasons....
Will be interesting to see where this goes if anywhere....transfer market opens Sunday....
http://www.transferwatch.com/2012/06...etails-emerge/Dempsey has been very clear about his desire to play in the Champions League – something Arsenal can offer him immediately and Liverpool cannot. And with Dempsey and his family already being settled in London, a move to Liverpool seems less than appealing. But the financial details, if true, certainly put it over the top.
It’s understood Fulham now want £5m because of the amount of interest in their forward.
The target man currently earns a reported £40,000 a week at Craven Cottage and Arsenal are prepared to increase it closer to £75,000 a week to steal a march on Liverpool.
As New York Times soccer writer John Godfrey counts it, that’s $6 million a season for the US superstar.
