Hellas Verona will demand a fee in excess of £24m for livewire winger Juan Manuel Iturbe, who is wanted by a host of European giants including Liverpool.
Iturbe shone on loan at Verona, who have an agreement in place to sign him from Porto for a fee of £12m following a successful loan spell.
The Argentinian contributed greatly as Verona secured a comfortable tenth-place finish in their first season back in Serie A, scoring eight times in 33 league appearances.
Liverpool, Real Madrid, Inter Milan and Monaco are all in pursuit of the 20-year-old and Verona insist any suitors will have to fork out big to land him this summer.
Verona's sporting director Sean Sogliano told Italian TV channel Telenuovo: "Iturbe? For me he is worth more than £24m.
"If we can sell at a figure to make a fortune for Verona he may leave, otherwise he will remain with us. I do not know where he will go. I will only sit down with those who really want him."
