Villarreal are eyeing Celta Vigo midfielder Denis Suarez.
Denis is available from Celta after a furious rift with president Carlos Mourino.
AS says Celta will encourage to take the midfielder off their hands in January.
Suárez has already played for Villarreal in the 2015-16 campaign and could now return to La Cerámica to end a difficult period in Vigo.
The midfielder, however, could choose to sit on his contract for the remainder of the season.
