With a stable financial position, I’m told they’re confident they can afford to wait for an ‘astronomical’ offer.“Camara’s current contract runs until 2029, with no release clause, giving Monaco full control over negotiations. There’s no pressure on them to sell, and they’d rather keep him as his value could rise even further.”That’s not a terrible price to pay for one of Europe’s leading midfielders.
