Roma have courageously rejected a bid of €25 million from Barcelona for Miralem Pjanic, as reported by Corriere dello Sport.
In recent times, the Bosnian has attracted plenty of attention from Germany, Spain and England prompting the Giallorossi to declare him ‘unsellable’.
It is rumored that Bayern Munich have also offered €20 million for the former Lyon player.
Pjanic was bought for €11 million, payable in three installments, and the last payment is due on June 30, 2013.
His contract is worth more than €3.6 million per year, which is subject to rise up to €4.5 million per year by the start of 2014-15 season.
Hence, from a financial point of view, the decision was hard to make.
