Albert Riera is seen as a viable transfer target for Liverpool, but the Spanish press claims that Panathinaikos have offered the midfielder a three-year contract worth £3.2 million.
Former Manchester City ace Riera has been linked to a return to The Premier League, following a superb season with Espanyol.
His Catalonian employers are ready to cash-in on the 26-year-old, who is believed to be interested in the Greek offer, but only if his brother Sito is part of the deal.
The striker is playing for Espanyol’s ‘B’ team after having joined from city rivals Barcelona in the summer of 2007.
Panathinaikos are believed to have been rebuffed with an £8 million bid, as Espanyol demand a minimum of £12 million.
It is clear that Riera wants out of Espanyol, after being targeted by a section of the club’s fans.
“I’m not going to play for Espanyol any more,” he said. “I don’t want to play for a club where the fans don’t want me.”
