Chelsea, Man Utd target Villa: I favour Premier League
Valencia ace David Villa has declared he wants a Premier League move.
The Spain international is being tipped to leave Los Che in the New Year with Valencia believed to be around £500million in the red.
The 27-year-old has previously only expressed a desire to remain in La Liga with giants Real Madrid his preferred destination.
Villa's admission is likely to interest the likes of Chelsea and Manchester United, although Liverpool are unlikely to compete for his £40million signature.
"I have not closed the door on any club because I only have a short career and I want to enjoy my football," Villa told the Daily Star.
"I have had a lot of offers, but I would have to pick the best option, and that could be in the Premier League, which I have never ruled out."

well if it's pathetic why r u still here? go ahead n pissed off already.
Now, you would think with the headline "Villa, I favour Premiere league" there would actually be a quote with those words? Instead we get "I have had a lot of offers, but I would have to pick the best option, and that could be in the Premier League, which I have never ruled out." But I keep forgetting this is tribalfootball. A pathetic website that publishes muck. Hence the reason hardly anyone comes here to post comments to discuss 'factual' reports.
