Daniel Alves has told skysports.com he has no preference over Italian, Spanish or English football as speculation continues to surround his future at Sevilla.

 

The Brazilian star has been linked with the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Barcelona after enjoying a tremendous season with the Uefa Cup finalists, even since deciding to sign a new deal in December

 

Sevilla have arrived in Glasgow ahead of Wednesday's all-Spanish showdown with Espanyol, and Alves has again seen his future become the subject of intense scrutiny.

 

Now the dynamic full-back has revealed he is open to playing in any of Europe's top leagues if an exit from Sevilla becomes a reality.

 

"The papers speak a lot about my future but really I have said nothing," Alves told skysports.com.

 

"I have a long deal with Sevilla but if a really big offer arrives we are obliged to value this option.

 

"I do not have any preference about England, Italy or Spain. I believe that I would be able to play for any big club because I am ambitious and also desire to progress in football."

 

However, talk of a transfer must wait for now as Alves is still hoping to help Sevilla secure a historic treble this season.

 

Juande Ramos's side are two points shy of Barcelona and Real Madrid in La Liga, and have a Copa del Rey final against Getafe to contend with before the season draws to a close.

 

Sevilla also beat Middlesbrough in last season's Uefa Cup final and Alves believes they are close to confirming their position as one of the continent's finest sides.

 

"Today Sevilla is one of the best teams in Spain and Europe," Alves added. "The success in the Uefa Cup confirms our progression.

 

"If now in Glasgow we win our second trophy nobody in Europe would be in doubt about our level, and next season we will have the Champions League.

 

"I am optimistic and I dream of victory in the final.

 

"For morale, it will be sensational ahead of he Copa del Rey final and the fight for La Liga in the last matches."
