Rafael Benitez seems to put his plans of signing Gareth Barry on hold as he moves for Valencia midfielder David Silva.
Valencia currently have debts of over £400 million, and they seem willing to sell a few of their star players. Moreover, Valencia need money to fund their new £250 million stadium.
According to Silva’s agent, Julio Llorente, Valencia have already rejected a £17 million bid for Silva from Atletico Madrid, and with the fee for the player reportedly lower, Benitez seems ready to purchase a player who helped Spain win the European Championship.
