Delegates from Spanish Champions League elect Sevilla are set to arrive in the Black Country to discuss a possible move for Borja Valero. It’s reported that preliminary talks have already taken place between the player and Sevilla – however Albion insist no official approach has been received for the playmaker.
Albion’s record signing caught the eye of Sevilla last term helping former club Real Mallorca achieve a Europa League spot after returning on loan. Valero has already expressed his desire to join the Rojiblancos but must now wait to see if the Spanish outfit can agree a deal with the Baggies.
"The first thing I have to say is that we have not had a formal offer," said Sporting and Technical director Dan Ashworth.
"I know there is interest because that is what has been said, but there has been no clear movement in this direction.
"It is one thing that Borja Valero wants to sign for Sevilla and quite another that we have an agreement to ensure a transfer.
"First, they have to make an offer, and then we will analyse it. What I will say is that we are not going to undersell the player.
"If we reach an agreement, because I do know the player's wish is to continue in the Spanish league, then good, but if not, Borja Valero will have to join West Brom for training because he belongs to our club."
