I am not sure he is. If it is a lona deal then his wages remain the same. The argument will be on what the split of those wages is between the two clubs.
Problem is that we don't know this for a fact, it's only the twatterati throwing this sort of thing into the mix to see what the reaction will be........
I thought his reply to that tweet put this to bed. It's a loan deal, so he continues to get whatever Lazio were paying him. It's then a question of how much we pay Lazio towards his wages.
ANYONE WANT A STRIKER? Apparently Dimitar Berbatov is in London, but it is not clear where he is heading. We understand West Ham say they are not signing the former Man Utd and Spurs forward, who is 36 and a free agent, so could sign for a club after tonight's deadline. “Suggestions that Berbatov is heading to West Ham are 100% wide of the mark," says our reporter Gary Cotterill. "Co-owner David Sullivan has said there will be no further business today and Slaven Bilic left the training ground about three hours ago. "But Berbatov is apparently in this country looking for club."
Does it? Really? Would love to be proven wrong but the guy has done nothing in his career to suggest this is going to go well.
MORRISON AGREES TERMS Sky sources understand QPR have agreed personal terms with Lazio midfielder Ravel Morrison. The player will finalise the move before the deadline. We understand the deal is a loan with an option to buy.
I keep chopping and changing on this, am currently leaning towards 'why the he'll not?' Judging solely by his loan spell 3 years ago he at least has the ability to score from open play which we've struggled with this season.
