Real Madrid are keen for
Chelsea and Liverpool to bid for Rafael van der Vaart.
Marca says the Spanish giants will try to tempt
Liverpool and Chelsea into a move for Van der Vaart before the
summer market shuts.
Real Madrid are ready to hawk
their cast-offs to English suitors after building a squad
Jose Mourinho believes can
compete for La Liga and the
Champions League this summer.
Van der Vaart wants to stay and fight for his place - a decision
welcomed by Mourinho - but Madrid general manager Jorge Valdano has
other ideas.
Roy Hodgson is understood to be keen, but does not have a big
budget to spend at Anfield, while links to Chelsea have gone cold and a return to Germany may
be more likely for the former Hamburg player.
