Villarreal goalkeeper Diego Lopez says he would be
interested in a move to the Premier League, amid reports linking
him with a move to Manchester United.
The 27-year-old has made more than 50 la Liga appearances for
the Yellow Submarine since arriving from Real Madrid in 2007,
having featured in just two league games for the Bernabeu
outfit.
Speculation has recently surfaced tipping the Spaniard - who has
one cap for his country - with a transfer to Old Trafford, adding
to him a lengthy list of stoppers linked with Sir Alex Ferguson's
side as a replacement for Edwin van der Saar.
And Lopez has revealed that he would be keen to follow fellow
Spanish glove-man Pepe Reina to England, should the opportunity
present itself.
"I'm aware of rumours and the Premier League is very
attractive," he said in The Sun.
The Premier League champions have already been linked with CSKA
Moscow goalkeeper Igor Akinfeev, Lazio shot-stopper Fernando
Muslera, Sporting custodian Rui Patrico and Schalke keeper Manuel
Neuer as potential new recruits, with 38-year-old Dutchman Van der
Sar expected to retire next summer.
