Piatti: Almeria playmaker in demand after relegation

Sky Bet

Relegated Almeria have stated that they will not be selling prized asset Pablo Piatti on the cheap.

The Argentine playmaker is being tracked by a host of clubs who are ready to try and lure him away.

Tottenham, Wigan, Atletico Madrid, Sevilla, Udinese and Lille are all keen on the 22-year-old.

But Almeria insist that they will not sell for less than €8million, having paid €7million for him in 2008.

"We are not going to talk money, Paulo is important to us and everything is under consideation," said sporting director Alberto Benito.

"Bids have come, but he will not be going for three, or four, or seven or even eight - from there we will see what teams want to do."
