Daniel Alves
-
Liverpool target Daniel Alves could seal a move to Anfield early next week, according to his agent.
Reds chief Rafa Benitez is a long-term admirer of the Sevilla wide man from his own time in Spain and it would now appear after a prolonged period of negotiation, an accord is close to being struck.
Alves has made no secret of his desire to make the switch to Merseyside but thus far the two clubs have been unable to concur on a fee, with Sevilla clearly reluctant to lose one of their main assets for anything less than a top fee.
It does, though, now look likely that Sevilla will agree to Alves' desire for a move to The Premiership, with a figure of £10 million mooted as the price set.
''The negotiations are very advanced but it is impossible to close the subject this week,'' confirmed Alaves' agent, Jose Rodriguez Baster.
''I expect the solution in a couple of days because the difference in money is very little.''
It is expected that if, and when, Alves puts pen-to-paper on a deal then it will run until 2011. -

He's not even a true midfielder.Originally posted by Agenda:good, midfielders usually take less time to adapt unlike strikers
He plays at rightback for Sevilla.
Dun know what Rafa is thinking, pay so much, scarly dun perform jialat man.
What happened to choices like Steed Malbarque(sp?), Jermaine Pennant?

Pennant deal was blocked by Birmingham's MD Sharon Brady , right ?
Think The Brums want to fetch big money from Pennant , think we pulled out of the deal ?
Anyway , Alves is a natural right back , isn't he ?
I saw him play against boro in that UEFA Cup Final , he was very good that game . -
but he can be a makeshift midfielder, most of the time right backs and left backs don't even defend much
trust in rafa
