Umeå's final bid to Marta delayed but increased
29 november 2008
Umeå IK has announced that they won't submit their final bid to Marta's agent Fabiano Farah until next week. They are working with a couple of promising sponsors, who will make their decisions in a few days. According to the local newspaper Västerbottenskuriren the new offer has a 50 % increase of Marta's current salary, making it somewhere around SEK 1,5 millions a year after taxes.
The proposed contract will be for three years. Umeå's general manager Britta Åkerlund repeats her earlier position that you can't go on like this every year. The deals they make with their main sponsors are also set for three years. "You can't let everything else at a stand still every fall, just because you have to save Marta for the club", Åkerlund comments.
But Umeå aren't exclusively focusing on Marta. Their back-up solution is still Australia's Lisa de Vanna and they are in contact with her. "She knows what we have to offer" says Åkerlund, who also says that it seems like de Vanna is very interested in Umeå.
Finally, asked about Linköping's recently announced interest in Umeå defender Johanna Frisk, Åkerlund just comments with a "Good luck" to Linköping.
They will probably need it.
