Veloso seeking summer move

10 July 2009 10:49
Miguel Veloso has told Sporting Lisbon that he has decided to leave the club this summer, according to reports in Portugal. Newspaper O Jogo says that the 23-year-old Portugal midfielder has spoken to club officials about his plans and instructed agent Paulo Barbosa to find him a club abroad. Aston Villa have apparently joined Bolton in the chase for Veloso, but Sporting are apparently holding out for a minimum of €10million (£8.5m). However, reports suggest that Sporting have yet to receive any firm offers for a player who has been a long-term target for Bolton boss Gary Megson.
