ゴンサロ・イグアイン
Halfway through the summer transfer season, the club had a protracted saga with possible signing of Liverpool striker Luis Suárez. The club believed that a bid above £40 million would trigger a release clause, but this information proved incorrect and Suárez remained under contract with Liverpool. In the chase for Suárez, the club was also thought to be close to signing Gonzalo Higuaín from Real Madrid, but the striker instead signed for Napoli.
