La Liga sides keeping tabs on Javier Saviola

Sevilla, Villarreal and Espanyol are all keen on Benfica striker Javier Saviola, according to A Bola.

The Argentine striker has lost his starting place at La Luz and he could decide to leave Eagles in January in search for first team football.

Saviola’s situation at Benfica has alerted a number of La Liga sides, including Villarreal, Sevilla and Espanyol, who are all interested in signing the former Barcelona striker.

Premiership side Queens Park Rangers and even Argentine giants River Plate have also expressed their interest.

Benfica coach Jorge Jesus still sees Saviola as an important part of the squad and would like to keep him at La Luz, but the player may decide to call it quits in January.

The 29-year-old has one year left on his contract with the Eagles, but the club have the option to extend the contract for another year.
