Coloccini waits on offers

Deportivo La Coruna are waiting on offers for defender Fabricio Coloccini.

Fabricio Coloccini's agent has stated that Real Zaragoza, Olympiakos and Tottenham Hotspur must put their interest in the player into writing if they are serious about signing him.

Marcelo Lombilla made the announcement after being told by Deportivo president, Augusto Lendoiro, that he would only enter in negotiations if the offers were concrete.

After meeting with the Riazor supremo, Zaragoza and Tottenham have made their interest known while talks with Olympiakos have already taken place.

"Lendoiro has asked me to see any offers in writing for Coloccini," Lombilla told AS.

"Last week I had a meeting in Madrid with Lendoiro.

"Now I have to wait and see if the interest of any of the clubs is confirmed and put it into writing and, if that happens, I will present them to the president.

"It will have to be something concrete though. We cannot deal with suppositions, only with reality."

While Olympiakos have made an offer of around ?4millon, Zaragoza are prepared to go higher while Tottenham have yet to make a firm proposal.

Coloccini's first choice would be to remain in Spain after being told by new Depor coach, Miguel Angel Lotina, that he has no choice but to sell the central defender.
