Arsenal move for Carini fails over pay demands

ARSENAL’S loan move for Fabian Carini broke down because of the Juventus goalkeeper’s exorbitant wage demands.

Sources in Turin report that the Uruguayan’s contract is worth £790,000 a year after tax, more than Arsenal were prepared to pay a reserve-team player for a single season.

Carini’s bonus package at Juventus also meant the 21-year-old’s wages immediately double to £1.8m a season after he has played 15 games.
