According to ED, Valles is a leading candidate to replace Jorgensen. Las Palmas welcomes the interest of Villarreal, although it will be difficult to convince the “keeper to join the team of Marcelino Garcia Toral – he has already rejected a move to Marseille because he has his heart set on a return to the Real Betis.
At the moment, Betis they refuse to meet Las Palmas ask for the price, which allows Villarreal the opportunity to stake his claim. However, it will certainly be very difficult to try it at Ceramics.
