Liverpool striker Fernando Torres doesn't believe Valencia striker David Villa will be tempted by the money of Chelsea or Manchester United.

Torres told the Daily Star Sunday: "I don't think Chelsea's money will tempt him, or United. I think with his abilities and qualities he is better for the Spanish league - he scores over 25 goals every season there.

"I would like him to come to Liverpool of course but I think he is too expensive for us.

"I would prefer it if he played in Spain than signed for Chelsea or United. That's what I'll tell him!"
