Levante plan Harte sale

Levante are reported to be ready to put Ian Harte up for sale this summer.

Levante are reported to be ready to put Ian Harte up for sale this summer.

Harte has been continually linked with a move away from Levante ever since his arrival in Spain in the summer of 2004.

Fresh reports emanating from Spain suggest Levante are now prepared to listen to offers for Harte at the end of the season.

The Republic of Ireland international has struggled to break into the Levante side this season making just four appearances so far this term.

Harte was remaining coy about his future insisting he was only focusing on regaining his place in the team.

"My objective is to play," said Harte.

Sunderland are thought to be monitoring Harte's situation at Levante and they could offer the former Leeds man a route back to England in the summer.

Meanwhile, Levante are reported to be lining up a move for Villarreal's Rodolfo Arrubarrena as a possible replacement for Harte.

The Argentine has confirmed he is set to leave Villarreal in the summer when his contract expires and Levante are thought to be at the head of the queue for his signature.
