Marinos also reneged on their financial package (the non-salary part of it) ; demanded Nakamura makes promotional appearences during the negotiations and were also planning to charge entrance fees for the press conference to announce Nakamura's signing - all of which pissed him and his people off.
Actually the Espanyol package is variously reported as Y200m or Y240m. Marinos offered only Y150m which was half what Nakamura was getting at Celtic.

The fee would be about £4 million or something close to that.

Though it seems it was Marinos who were financialy driven and not sincere, and that attitude pissed the player/agent off to the point of refusing to negotiate further.
Manchester United Ready To Pay €60 Million For Sergio Aguero - Reports
The striker has been rumoured to be leaving the Vicente Calderon this summer...
23 Jun 2009 19:53:10
Manchester United are reportedly ready to pay €60 million to sign Sergio Aguero from Atletico Madrid this summer.
The Argentine striker was not in great form last season but is still regarded as one of the best young talents in Europe and United are apparently keen to bring him to Old Trafford.
However, as was reported earlier today, Atletico have stated that they will not be accepting any bids for Aguero or Diego Forlan, so any offer would have to be above his buy-out clause.
Marca reports that since Cristiano Ronaldo is all but gone from Old Trafford, United are ready to spend the €60 million to bring 'Kun' in.
One positive factor for the English club is that they have a good relationship with IMG, who negotiate matters for the Argentine forward amongst others.
Apparently the player himself would not be against a move to United, and he would be an ideal replacement for not only Cristiano Ronaldo, but also Carlos Tevez.
The Argentine looks set to move to cross-city rivals Manchester City, leaving United short up front and in need of a new forward.
The Red Devils' plan is reportedly to talk to Atletico about a possible deal and to try and negotiate a suitable price for the forward.
If the Spanish club are not willing to sell for under the buy-out clause, then it is thought that United are willing to pay the €60 million fee.

Wrong. Clearly Zigic will stay because we are going to sign Villa and they won't be getting Negredo to replace himHe's in Sweden's U21 squad. The only reason I know is because I randomly picked him to be first goalscorer in the Predictor thingJaime wrote:
