Zigic seeks English switch

Everton, Blackburn, Wigan and Stoke rumoured to be interested

Nikola Zigic's agent claims the Serbian striker is only interested in sealing a move to the Premier League.

The towering front man has fallen out of favour at Valencia and is actively seeking a transfer away from Mestalla before the transfer window slams shut.

Los Che's continuing financial difficulties mean the Primera Liga side are reluctant to discuss a loan deal for the forward, preferring to generate much-needed funds by collecting a fee.

However, they may be willing to negotiate a deal which would allow them to trim their wage bill.

A host of English clubs are reported to have shown an interest in the 27-year-old, favouring an agreement which would see Zigic move on loan, but still willing to take on his salary.

Milan Calasan, his agent, claims the offers from England will now be discussed.

"The kid is calm and now we need to evaluate the options and decide which is the best club," he said.
