The club would support this payment in the region of €190m and would also have to compute the tax - in Spain, at the time, it was somewhere around 56 per cent. "I believe that €430m was not an obscene value. The player was unattainable and priceless, in that Barcelona do not want to sell.  "In fact, even if the value was obscene, it is not my problem. It was the contracted amount."</blockquote>
