Real Madrid president Florentino willing to include Negredo in bid for Valencia's Villa

Real Madrid are willing to include Alvaro Negredo as part of their offer for Valencia striker David Villa.

Real general manager Jorge Valdano confirmed their interest in Villa yesterday, though admitted Valencia's asking price was "prohibitive".

AS says Real president Florentino Perez is willing to make a take-it-or-leave-it offer of £25 million cash plus Negredo for Villa.
