Tottenham have been given a deadline to complete the signing of Roberto Soldado. The Spanish forward, 28, has been linked with a move to the Premier League for most of the summer and Liverpool are believed to be the latest team to have shown interest in the forward.
The 30 million Euro valuation for Soldado has reportedly not been matched, with Spurs some way off with their original 15 million Euro offer. Liverpool are also interested in the striker, having seen Luis Suarez linked with a move to Arsenal. It is understood that the Anfield side want to bring Soldado to the club as replacement for the Uruguayan.
"Soldado can go if he wants - for €30 million and under our conditions,” Valencia's president Amadeo Salvo said. "Valencia never had any intention of selling Soldado. If he goes then it is because the €30 million figure has been met, not a cent less or a cent more.
"The buying club will also have to accept Valencia's conditions of payment also. We agreed to meet Tottenham again to discuss the ways of paying and we did that because we understood that his buy-out clause would be met.
"Speaking about ways that deals are paid is normal and this will be done in a way that suits the financial department of Valencia and not that of any other clubs."
