RAFA PLAYS DOWN VILLA TALK
Liverpoolfc.tv 10 July 2008

Rafa Benitez today played down reports he is ready to swoop for Spain hero David Villa.
Speaking at the unveiling of Philipp Degen and Andrea Dossena this afternoon, the Liverpool boss was quizzed on possible replacements for the outgoing Peter Crouch.

Benitez said: "I said the other day that Villa is one of the names we had on our list, but I can say at this moment that it is not an option for us.

"We know Villa is a very good player, we know the price and we know the players we have, so when you consider everything we decided he was one of the names, but at this moment, not our target.

"Keane is one of the other names and, okay, we are working on other names. We were in contact and we will see now."
