Miguel: No bids

Valencia have played down speculation that full-back Miguel could be sold.

The Portugal international has been strongly linked with a move to England with the likes of Chelsea, Arsenal, Newcastle and most recently Aston Villa tipped to enter the bidding.

However, Los Che insist they have not been contacted as of yet.

No offers

"The player has been rumoured to be on his way out of the club, but we have not received any offers," Sporting director Miguel Angel Ruiz said.

"This issue depends on the coach Ronald Koeman and on the directors."

Despite rumours that Miguel may be unsettled at Mestalla - he has started 18 games so far this season.
