"Valencia" confirms interest in Milan Baros © EuroFootball.com

Last year's UEFA Cup winner and Spanish champion confirmed interest in the most productive player of the 2004 European Championship in Portugal, Czech striker Milan Baroš. The Spaniards were interested in the Czech national team striker already last summer, but at that time the player himself decided to stay at Liverpool. It is believed that after a rather unsuccessful season, Valencia will renew their interest in Liverpool's striker this summer. Recently, the English club and its coach, former Valencia strategist Rafael Benitez, stated that they are ready to listen to offers for the 23-year-old Czech. Valencia's director Eduardo Macia confirmed the club's interest in M. Baroš, who was recently actively pursued by Barcelona: "We are considering possible transfers and are interested in Milan Baroš." A possible candidate was also positively evaluated by Valencia coach Antonio Lopez: "He would definitely strengthen our attack." M. Baroš scored 5 goals in the European Championship held in Portugal, and this year he has scored 9 goals in 22 matches in the Premier League.
