Duo keen on Torres move

Jose Reyes and Asier Del Horno both want Fernando Torres to join them in England.

Jose Antonio Reyes and Asier Del Horno are both trying to persuade Atletico Madrid star Fernando Torres to join them in England.

The pair are both huge fans of their Spanish international team-mate - who has been strongly linked with both Chelsea and Arsenal in recent weeks.

Now both are telling Torres of the virtues of moving to London - with Reyes pulling for Arsenal, and Del Horno for champions Chelsea.

"Right now only Thierry Henry is better than him," said Reyes.

"He is the best forward in Europe and has a great deal of experience while Torres is only 21.

"Torres is a great player, but still has time to progress.

"With him and Henry we could have the best forward line in the world.

"They would be lethal with me giving them assistance."

Del Horno added: "Torres can play for any team in the world. He has all the qualities to go right to the very top.

"I would rather be playing alongside him than against him."

All three are currently on international duty with Spain as they tackle Slovakia in their World Cup play-off.
