Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo has admitted that he would love to move to England and join a Premier League team.
The 27-year-old has been widely linked with a number of Premier League clubs, including Tottenham, Arsenal, Newcastle and Sunderland, and Sevilla’s president Jose Maria del Nido was in England this week - with reports claiming he was in London to finalise the sale of the Spaniard.
“The Premier League is a great competition, I really like it and I think my style of football would be well suited to it,” Negredo is quoted as saying by Daily Star.
“There comes a time when a cycle comes to an end and I don't know whether my time will be sooner or later. I haven't thought about it a lot but I wouldn't mind playing abroad.”
The Spanish striker added that he has consulted with fellow countrymen Juan Mata and Fernando Torres about the possibility of moving to England.
He said: “I've spoken to the guys playing in England, mainly when we were together at Euro 2012.”
“I spoke to Mata and Torres and they say it is easier to go out and about in England as there is not as much scrutiny as in Spain. I like that.”
