If I was Levy I'd end the arrangement we have with Real Madrid (their tapping up of Bale must be illegal surely?) and try and form a new one as part of this deal with Valencia. Offer to help them with player loans etc. with a first option on players moving between the clubs. If they are that bad financially it might work.
Maybe offer them Ade too as part of the deal, with us paying a part of his wage?
I would have posted but last night on Foroche someone posted Soldado to Liverpool for £30 million done- clearly balls because it's not been picked up on RAWK, other than that at the Valencia end their very worried about their replacements, the prospect of having to sell Banega next season to stay afloat and a poster called Coverdale has got a very interesting signature which would go straight into Manwhore's mansion.

Picture of Soldado doing his tests.
Not sure on the bid, but the last paragraph tells us we'll have a solution in the coming days, with it likely he'll leave.VALENCIA. Roberto Soldado Valencia again. The Valencia striker is quoted in this morning in the sports city of Paterna, to pass the relevant analytical and medical tests. The player would rather not have to return to training after taking the decision to leave.
The key moment of the day is at eight o'clock, when e l revisit Valencia striker Mestalla to watch the match between Valencia and Milan. Is it time to see the reaction to the Valencia Coliseum, until a few weeks ago, was its referent.
Soldier still waiting for that Tottenham or Liverpool will decide to make the final offer and can go to the Premier League, because, even though the president and the coach have tried to defend their professionalism if eventually run, Valencia striker knows that his image has been badly damaged in the face to the fans.
Tottenham meanwhile, has not yet returned to bid for the player after last Monday to meet with the president of Valencia. Franco Baldini returned to London without agreement and with the caveat that not negotiate Except for less than 30 million in two installments of 15. Liverpool still waiting to know if sold to Luis Suarez to launch into the Spanish striker.
The player has remained on the sidelines during their holidays but eventually must return to training because his transfer has not yet been finalized. In the coming days we will have solution for Soldier, but most likely the front end leaving.
Seems they are striking out on replacements, or perhaps, just settling
I tried to translate as best I could. Google flopped with this one, so I did my best.
Plan B with Postiga and Sergio Garcia
Salvo's desire to bring a crack hits a poor economic situation, but they will try to finish
C. BOSCH AND A. SANTAMARÍA
Amadeo excepted to bring Fred, and he had asked for a transfer of Chicharito Hernandez, but Djukic is short. The competition is getting closer and the economy worse than they had imagined. So Djukic announced in the press room that the club has a Plan B to all cases, whether it brings an end to Roberto Soldado being retained or not. For the technician, even with Soldado in the team, he wants more forward, as we had reported a few days ago.So, with Plan B there are a number of forwards who fit the profiles Djukic and Braulio have agreed on, and are also in the economic parameters that will work for the club, even in its worst scenario.
On that list are players are the likes of Hélder Postiga international for Portugal, and Sergio Garcia, who also was with Roja at the 2008 Euros. He is currently (under control by?) Zaragoza and Espanyol. Between the two clubs, they will not pretend to accept a transfer fee from Valencia under six million euros and Postiga, at least from what we have been told, have already an economic agreement.
For Plab B there are alternatives, such as the Croatian Kalinic, who currently plays for Ukrainian Dnipro dle and contemplate what he would give up for Valencia, because after two years in those lands, it is crazy to leave. They are looking into the type of striker of Valdez's profile, which is what Djukic is claiming. The club is also looking at Getafe striker Adrian Colunga.
Is it end are there really options? Can we expect more amateur players?With Valencia, that is the commitment of its president, to try and give a knock of [Soldado's transfer's] effect to an end. His idea is to bring a great amateur player who motivates and help to boost the image of Valencia..

Mark my words, one day a player will play for Spurs before the transfer has been officially announced.

He's denying he wants Postiga personally and is leaving the choice up to manager and director but will get involved in the negotiations for the fee?
Also saying (not sure) that Soldado and the club have no issue regarding the potential transfer and he's still a committed Valencia player...
"Salvo did not want to get wet with the possible signing of Helder Postiga..."
