Eto'o met with Anzhi officials in Milan on Wednesday and reportedly agreed to a three-year contract worth $29 million net per season, which would eclipse the estimated $17.4 million that Cristiano Ronaldo earns at Real Madrid.
However, Italian media report that Inter is seeking a transfer fee of $43 million, while Anzhi has offered $32 million.
The ANSA news agency cites intermediary agent Peppino Tirri as saying the sides are nearing a deal with more talks planned Thursday.
