The Colombian was heavily linked with moves to Manchester United and Barcelona over the summer but when they both failed to land the wide man, Cuadrado opened contract talks with Fiorentina over extending his current deal.

The talks have now broken down because of one issue, the buyout clause. While Fiorentina want the 26 year old’s clause to be at £32 million, the players officials think it should be less.

Although the current talks have broken down, Cuadrado is still confident of reaching an agreement with the Italian club.

He said: ”The contract renewal? I don’t like talking about this now. There is my agent for this.

”There will be a meeting with the club and I think we will find an agreement.”

Although it seems likely that the Colombian international will sign a new deal soon, Manchester United may make another move for him in January with Louis van Gaal still having plenty of money to spend despite the £150 million he lavished on new players during the summer.
