JEREMY MATHIEU ACCEPTED PAY-CUT TO JOIN BARCELONA

Barcelona's new signing, Jérémy Mathieu, was so desperate to join Barcelona which made him to willingly accept a reduction in his wages to free up funds for the 'Azulgranas' to shell out on his transfer fee.

In return, Barçelona handed him a lengthier contract than had initially been agreed, signing him on for four seasons plus an optional fifth.

It is also worth noting that after some protracted toing and froing, Valencia eventually settled for half of the fee (€10 million) in cash, with the remainder being paid in two €5m instalments.
