Negredo has Prem options

22 July 2009 08:30
Alvaro Negredo's agent claims Premier League clubs have tabled bids for the Real Madrid striker. Negredo is believed to be available for transfer this summer despite Real only recently exercising their option to buy the 23-year-old back from Almeria. Spurs are being linked with a £17million move for the striker nicknamed 'The Wild Animal', although Liverpool have also been credited with an interest. Negredo's agent, Alejandro Camano, claims Premier League clubs have moved for the striker, but that no deal has been concluded with the Santiago Bernabeu outfit. While Negredo is being tipped to move to England's top flight, Camano is not ruling out his client staying in La Liga. "We have had several offers from the Premier League, but no deal has been finalised and we are still studying which is the best option for the player," said Camano in the Daily Mirror. "But also there are clubs in Spain who are interested." Villarreal are also being linked with a move for Negredo, although he could be used as a makeweight in a €15million (£13m) deal that sees Spain international Santi Cazorla move to Real. The Yellow Submarines are also being tipped to move for Middlesbrough striker Tuncay, who is expected to leave the Riverside this summer following relegation to the Championship.
