Sevilla turn down fresh Liverpool bid
Wednesday, 14 June 2006 08:50UEFA Cup winners Sevilla claim they have turned down a new offer from Liverpool for attacking full-back Daniel Alves, who now seems keen on moving to Anfield.
According to Sevilla president Jose Maria del Nido, Liverpool had an offer rejected but came back with a fresh proposal which was also dismissed.
The 23-year-old Brazilian right-back has spent four years with the Spanish club who are reluctant to let Alves leave.
'We are already talking big money but Sevilla don't want to lose the player,' said Del Nido.
'What happens when a player wants a change of scenery is that he can't force it.
'Daniel has let the sporting director know that the offer from Liverpool is the most important. But he has not put pressure on us and we don't have a highly strung relationship with him.'
