PARIS - Javier Pastore was unveiled as a Paris Saint-Germain player on Monday and denied there was any added pressure on him as France's most expensive player ever.
The 22-year-old Argentinian midfielder signed from Italian Serie A side Palermo on Saturday for 42 million euros ($59.8 million), breaking the previous record set when PSG paid Real Madrid 33 million euros for Nicolas Anelka in 2000.
"I am not thinking about this record transfer; that is a subject between the club and my agent," said Pastore at a press conference at the Parc des Princes.
