VILLA 'FLATTERED' BY REDS LINK
By Alex Livie - Created on 6 Mar 2007

Valencia striker David Villa has admitted he is flattered by reports linking him with a move to Liverpool.

The Spanish international is one of the hottest properties in Europe, as his goals have kept Valencia in the hunt for honours both domestically and in Europe.

Villa was linked with a move away from the Mestalla during the January transfer window, but the Che were able to fend off interest in the striker.

However, the speculation surrounding his future is refusing to subside as he has again been linked with the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and Liverpool.

Villa recently told the Spanish media that a host of Premiership clubs were on his trail and he has now admitted that reports linking him with a move to Anfield are flattering.

"Liverpool don't just have a coach who is Spanish but I also have a lot of friends there," Villa is quoted as saying in the Daily Star.

"When Rafa (Benitez) was coach at Valencia and I was at Zaragoza, there was contact about me joining Valencia. But I couldn't arrive until the year after he left.

"The talk is flattering, and it makes you see that if you are doing things well, other teams should become interested in you.

"But all the time there is nothing concrete, then I am not going to think about it too much. The day that happens, we will look at the situation then.

"Things can happen in the future but right now I am happy at Valencia."

Certainly likes talking to the press doesnt he?

[tomasjj]

He is on the move this summer. That much seems sure with all this talking.

[AFII]

I agree with you and I wild guess is that he will join us.

I will have to edit my wish list again.

[ARIMAN]

I guess Eto, Villa and Torres will be on the move this summer

Funds pending, I think Eto>Villa>Torres would be best as the primary target

Althought I doubt we`ll get any of these players

[AFII]

Why?

Hicks have showed in the past that he is prepared to break records in the transfer market.

If Rafa wants him and if Valencia is prepared to sell then I believe that he will join us.

good for him.

but i don't think Rafa is willing to pay over the odds for a playa ala chelsea.

[AFII]

I think that Rafa is prepared to spend big on a player or two but not all the time.
