Manchester United left sweating on Kagawa as Dortmund want more money Shinji Kagawa had been thought to be available as one of the bargains of the transfer market. The fact his contract is ending in a year, that he's refusing to sign a new one, and wants to leave to play in the Premier League all combined to put downwards pressure on any fee Borussia Dortmund could expect. Indeed, the amount being suggested by the German media as an acceptable fee for the Japanese midfielder has never risen above €15m, and in England has even been quoted as low as £7m. Now Dortmund have got a bit irked. The Bundesliga champions feel they could get more for Kagawa and their chairman has compared it to the situation with Manuel Neuer when he joined Bayern Munich. CEO Hans-Joachim Watzke says that Neuer only had a year left on his contract too but that Bayern paid Schalke more than €20m for him. Watzke doesn't see why Borussia Dortmund should expect anything less and sounds like he wants to start an auction. He's quoted by reviersport.de as saying "It is quite clear that Shinji has talent for his age and how valuable he is to this team. Then I see what Bayern paid for Manuel Neuer. He also had only one year of a contract. From these facts one can derive a certain sum." Of course Watzke could just be playing hard ball and he obviously won't want to be left with an unhappy player for a year who then leaves for nothing. Manchester United were thought to be in pole position but if they think Dortmund want to start an auction then they could pull out and concentrate on other targets they could secure before Euro 2012. Dortmund paid less than half a million Euros for Kagawa and the player himself probably won't be too pleased if the club try to auction him around Europe.
