West Brom have reportedly made a €17m offer for the Galatasaray winger Bruma.
According to O Jogo, the offer is still not enough to convince the Turkish side, who are demanding €20m for the player.
It seems that Bruma’s price has doubled in the past few days. On Friday, the very same O Jogo said West Brom had contacted Galatasaray and were told he’d cost €10m.
O Jogo probably got their first information wrong, because West Brom wouldn’t be offering €17m if the price was €10m.
Bruma scored a goal and made an assist this weekend against Akhisarspor. That’s a good thing to do when your club is demanding a lot of money for you.
Despite being born in Bissau, Bruma has Portuguese nationality and played for Sporting for a big part of his career. That’s probably where O Jogo’s sources come from, since none of the sides involved are particularly interesting for the Portuguese press.
With a contract running until 2018, the player spent the last season on loan at Real Sociedad, where he managed two goals and one assist in 32 La Liga games.
