And the Chronicle confirm today that Sam Allardyce DID offer Emre in part exchange.
So that obviously thows into question the future of the Turkish international.
Although Bayern Munich have been linked with a bid for Emre for over a year, the German club have not but any offer on the table.
Emre´s agent has indicated clubs in Turkey, Italy and Spain are after him, but Barcalona are certainly NOT one of them.
The Spanish giants will listen to offers for Deco but the Portuguese international will only go for a cash deal - no part exchanges.
