Sevilla have confirmed they have received bids from
Liverpool and Aston Villa for striker Luis Alberto and defender Antonio Luna
respectively.
Alberto, 20, spent last season on loan at Barcelona B where
he scored 11 times in 38 games while Luna, a 22-year old left-back, spent the
second half of the campaign at Mallorca after only making a handful of
appearances for Unai Emery's side.
The duo could now be heading for the Premier League this
summer after Sevilla's director of football Ramon Verdejo admitted there have
been offers for the two players.
"Liverpool's interest in Luis is real, but nothing has
been signed. They've made the player a very important offer," he told
Sevilla's official TV channel, La Bombonera.
"I recall that much of a fuss was made when we loaned
him out. As it stands, we all agree that he now has a better value in the
market and has grown as a footballer.
"Is it a good deal to sell him for the figures they
speak of? The offer we have on the table is a very good one with respect to where
Luis is currently.
"We don't know what will happen in the future. To date,
we haven't accepted the offer."
