Agent: Barcelona turned down by MLS star Giovinco in January
“Barcelona’s directors came to Milan in January 2016 to try to get Sebastian on loan, but he said no” Andrea D’Amico told Premium Sport.
“Toronto wouldn’t have let him leave, however”.
“He was signed to help the club grow, as demonstrated this year, when he made Italian fans in Canada dream”
The former Juventus academy product has been a sensation in Toronto so far, scoring 45 goals and adding 30 assists in 72 games.
D’Amico made it clear, however, that his client is being courted even now by major clubs. He recently revealed that a Chinese Premier League club was also making an offer.
“Two clubs expressed a tangible interest, which have been communicated to Toronto.
“Confronted with certain sums, it would be hard to say no, they go way past what Sebastian earns right now”.
