Premier League clubs have been put on alert after
Valencia president Agustin Morera revealed the club will listen to
offers for their star duo.
Spain striker David Villa has been linked to a host of top
clubs across Europe, including Chelsea, while midfielder David
Silva is a player several sides in England's top flight have been
keeping tabs on.
An exodus of Valencia's top players has been predicted as the
club look to solve some of the financial trouble caused by the
sizeable pay-off to sacked coach Ronald Koeman and problems with
the construction of a new stadium.
"For us they (Villa and Silva) are fundamental players but it's
not down to me to say who plays and how," he told Spanish newspaper
AS.
"If very serious offers come in they will be looked at if
(technical secretary Juan Gines) Sanchez and (head coach Unai)
Emery think it's convenient.
"If not they'll say that these players can't leave because they
are important. We'll do what's best for the club."
He added: "The journalists were saying that all our players were
for sale. You'll realise that this is false."
