Geoffrey Kondogbia 'rejected more money for Inter Milan move'

Geoffrey Kondogbia rejected higher wages to secure a move to Inter Milan, according to the midfielder's agent.

Geoffrey Kondogbia's agent has claimed that the midfielder rejected more money from other clubs to secure a move to Inter Milan.

Inter announced the arrival of the 22-year-old earlier this week after recent speculation had also linked him with Arsenal and Tottenham Hotspur, and his representative claims that his eagerness to make the switch to San Siro persuaded him to turn down better wages.

"He received offers from England, Spain and Italy, as Milan and Inter weren't the only clubs interested in Serie A," Paolo Schiavone told fcinter1908.it.

"However, the lad is fascinated by the project that Roberto Mancini proposed to him. It's false to say he just went for the money, as Kondogbia wanted Inter and would've accepted even lower wages. After all, he would've earned more under the Milan contract.

"It was never an issue of money. Geoffrey wanted a project to wed himself to and he found that in the Nerazzurri."

AC Milan were also reported to be interested in Kondogbia.
