Recent reports have confirmed that Chelsea lodged a €50 million offer to try and bring the player to London, while Manchester City were also said to be in the running.

Pjanic’s decision to switch agents, linking up with Fali Ramadani, caused plenty of speculation about the player’s future.

The midfielder will earn a cool €6.5 million per season as part of the new deal, which puts him alongside some of the biggest earners in the division.
