Valencia are interested in Hertha Berlin defender Omar Alderete.

AS says Valencia have held talks with Hertha about ferrying Alderete to Spain this summer.

The player's agent was recently in Valencia and the operation - a loan - is pending on Hertha's position.

Alderete is currently at the Copa America with Paraguay and is waiting on Hertha to make a decision.

The Germans are willing to do business, but would prefer a sale over a loan arrangement.
