European giant cools on Brozović after shock wage demands

Croatian midfielder Marcelo Brozović is reportedly seeking a significant salary as he searches for a new club after departing Saudi Arabian side Al Nassr. The 31-year-old spent three years in Saudi Arabia, where he earned an estimated $100 million through his contract and bonuses.

Greek powerhouse Olympiacos has emerged as a potential suitor, but initial negotiations have hit a snag due to Brozović's wage expectations. The midfielder is reportedly demanding 7 million euros per season for a two-year deal. Such a contract would position him as Olympiacos' highest-earning player, surpassing current top earner Ayoub El Kaabi, who makes 2.7 million euros annually.

While Olympiacos has not accepted Brozović's initial demands, the club remains keen on acquiring the experienced midfielder. Reports suggest the Greek team is preparing a revised offer that aligns more closely with their current top-tier player salaries. The outcome of these negotiations will determine whether Brozović returns to European football with Olympiacos.
