Adrian doubled his wages with late Liverpool offer
The 32-year-old was about to accept the best offer he had received all summer to return to Spain when Liverpool made a late enquiry to his representatives offering to double his best offer to £40,000 per week to stay in the Premier League.
In addition to his wages worth £160,000 per month, he is thought to have landed a lucrative seven-figure million signing on bonus.
The former Hamme signed a deal with Liverpool following the departure of Simon Mignolet on a permanent switch to Club Brugge earlier today. Mignolet was reported to earn £60,000 per week so the Reds will still be making a significant saving on their backup keeper.
Adrian spent a six-year spell with West Ham making 150 appearances for the club before leaving this summer at the end of his contract. Pellegrini signed Roberto and David Martin who combined wages are claimed to be less than Adrian enjoyed.
