First off, Sky Sports report that Chelsea target Daniel Alves has expressed his desire to "play at a European giant".Primera Liga new-boys Almeria have signed Brazilian goalkeeper Diego Alves from Atletico Mineiro. Sky Sports report that the 22 year old has signed a five year deal with the Spanish side.
Real Betis may turn to Sporting Lisbon's Carlos Paredes in their search for a central midfielder. Marca (Spanish link) report that their favoured target is still Leandro Somoza of Villarreal, but with the Yellow Submarines seemingly unwilling to sell the Argentine, Parades would be a good alternative for Hector Cuper's side.
Finally, Real Zaragoza seem to have hit a stumbling block over the transfer of Fabio Coloccini from Deportivo. Marca (Spanish link) report that the clubs cannot agreed a fee for the Argentine defender, despite personal terms having been agreed some days ago. The player's agent, Marcelo Lombilla excepts the issue to be resolved in the next few days.
