In-demand Sevilla striker Alvaro Negredo has sent a come-and-get-me plea to his suitors from the English Premier League, admitting he is keen to turn out in England’s top flight.

Negredo has been linked with a number of England’s elite, with Tottenham Hotspur and Everton both having firm interest in a swoop in the January transfer window; Chelsea were also keen before bagging Demba Ba.



And the former Real Madrid man is ready to follow a number of his countrymen, including David Silva, Santi Cazorla and Pepe Reina, to the Premier League.

"It is a league that I like and sooner or later I will play in it", Negredo was quoted as saying by Calcio Mercato.

"[Sevilla] President Jose Maria del Nido received some offers, but decided not to consider them.

"We’ll see what is going to happen in the future."

Negredo has hit 15 goals in 26 La Liga games so far this season. He is under contract with Los Rojiblancos until 2016.
