Last January, Celta and Benfica reached an agreement for the transfer of Franco Cervi in that winter market. However, a significant wave of infections in the Lisbon team caused the Argentine to gain weight in the team and the Portuguese club refused to accept the sale in that window. However, all parties gave their word to keep what was agreed in the future summer market.
That time has come and now Benfica wants to change the agreement, which was set at a fixed four million plus two other variables based on a series of objectives. The benfiquistas now ask Celta for six fixed million and two other variables. In other words, they have raised the price of Cervi by two million euros.
Despite this unexpected maneuver, the Vigo team are optimistic and fully confident in closing the signing of the Argentine winger. The player is putting everything on his part to fulfill his will to play home in Balaídos. It is an express request from Coudet and he wants to triumph in LaLiga. For Celta it would be an important addition that would serve to cover the three midfielder positions, since Cervi can act both on the sides and in the center.
