Sevilla is Vasquez destination

He has been courted by many clubs and his club were asking silly money for him, now it seems he may be on his way to a new suitor for half price. Palermo midfielder Franco Vazquez, while being a Tottenham target, has never been close to a move to us.

He had an agreement with AC Milan, which was then clouded by new owners and has since stalled. he turned down WBA, West Ham and is still courted by CSKA Moscow, Fiorentina and Lazio. Now it seems Spain might be his destination with media in both Spain ad Italy suggesting an imminent deal for the 27-year-old central attacking midfielder.

Triple Europa League champions FC Seville can offer him Champions League football this season and reports suggest a £12.59-million (€15m - AUS$21.82m - US$16.66m) offer plus £2.52 (€3m - AUS$4.36m - US$3.33m) bonuses deal is close.

That is some way short of the £21.02-million (€25m - AUS$36.37m - US$27.77m) the palermo president was continually quoting he wanted for his star man. It was never a realistic price.
