Ajax full back Gregory van der Wiel has admitted that he is attracted to the idea of playing in La Liga for Valencia.

 

Los Che are ready to swoop for the 23-year-old in the January transfer window and have been talking to Ajax about buying the Holland international.

 

Van der Wiel has been in demand for the last 18 months and the likes of Chelsea and Manchester City were linked with bids for his services.

 

A move to Spain though is looking more likely by the day, with Van der Wiel himself giving his blessing to the transfer if it should come off.

 

"I really like La Liga and it would be nice to play for a club like Valencia", said the Dutchman.

 

"I’d like to agree terms with them, it would be another step forward in my career.

 

"The two clubs are talking about it, so let’s see what happens."
