Barcelona are among the clubs who are monitoring the Spaniard's situation, but it emerged last night that the Liverpool manager has also been made aware of potential interest from Valencia, his former club, and Atletico Madrid.

Manuel Garcia Quillon, his agent, has been approached by people from or working on behalf of Valencia, Atletico and Barcelona.
