It was revealed during the Liverpool press conference that the fee stood at £27 million. It has also been widely reported that Torres has taken a pay cut as part of the transfer. A drop from £103,000 a week in Spain, to about £90,000 according to The Times.
At the time of Torres transfer it was said that he had taken a paycut to join Liverpool - £90k p.w. equates to around £4.5million p.a. not £5.86million p.a. ?
I also thought that Rio Ferdinand would have been in the list ? He supposedly got a record deal of £130k per week and is thought to be looking for even more now Ronaldo has had a huge rise.
