Villarreal's big bid for Floccari
Tuesday 27 January, 2009

Atalanta marksman Sergio Floccari has been the subject of a huge bid from Villarreal, reports in the peninsula suggest.

Floccari is known to interest Roma and has won many other plaudits with 10 goals to his name so far this term.

But, according to the Corriere dello Sport, Spanish outfit Villarreal have been the first club to table a concrete bid.

The paper claims that the Yellow Submarine have offered just under £18m - a sum that Atalanta would struggle to refuse.

Atalanta have admitted that Floccari will be leaving the club next summer, but they had rejected speculation he could move on before the end of the season.

Should Floccari agree to join Villarreal, he would meet up with compatriot Giuseppe Rossi.
