Valencia boss Ronaldo Koeman has launched a £4m bid to prise John Arne Riise away from Liverpool.
Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez is determined to keep 27-year-old Riise but Koeman told the Daily Mirror: "He is a player with experience and would offer options to our game."
Valencia sporting director Miguel Angel Ruiz added: "We want to improve our squad."
Valencia are already out of the Champions League and are rebuilding.
They see Riise as a vital part of that and will not be put off an initial rejection from Anfield.

No way! Come on. You got to up your offer to at least 6m man. Even so, I will have to think twice. Aurelio ain't as good physically or defensively and arbeloa needs to cover on the right if finnan is injured. No way can a champions league medallist cost only 4m...maybe except traore =)
