Agent confirms Doni will snub Atletico interest to join Liverpool
Posted Saturday, July 09, 2011 by Talksport.co.uk
Liverpool are closing in on the signing of Roma goalkeeper Doni - despite Atletico Madrid's late attempt to hijack the deal.
The La Liga side are desperate to recruit a new No.1 after selling David De Gea to Manchester United earlier this month.
And reports in Italy have revealed Atletico approached Roma about Doni, even though the goalkeeper is on the verge of moving to Anfield.
But the player's agent, Ovidio Colucci, has insisted the late bid from Spain will not affect the keeper's impending move to Liverpool, which could be completed before the end of the week.
"It's true that Atletico showed an interest in the goalkeeper but they did it indirectly," Colucci told Corriere Dello Sport.
"They did it through intermediaries, so there's nothing to it. The only concrete offer is that of Liverpool.
"Of course anything could happen before the signatures are added to the contracts, but I can confirm that there is only Liverpool for Doni."
