Saviola Wants Madrid Stay
Javier Saviola wants to stay at Real Madrid and his agent believes that the club have no plans to sell him after speaking to Predrag Mijatovic and Bernd Schuster.
The diminutive Argentinian striker was rumoured to be on his way out of the Bernabéu after a season that saw him rarely given a chance to prove himself and various clubs are said to be interested.
But Saviola's agent, Diego Queiruga, has asked Madrid about next term and has only been reassured that his client is expected to be a member of the squad.
"In the various meetings we have had with the sporting director and Bernd Schuster, they expressed their satisfaction with Saviola's behaviour and were confident that he could have a great season," he told Marca.
Wolfsburg are one club to have made their interest official, while Italian hopefuls Juventus, Fiorentina and Napoli are all monitoring the situation, according to reports.
After joining Madrid last summer, Saviola was hopeful that he could hold down a place in the team having spent the majority of the previous campaign on Barcelona's bench.
Instead, he repeated that by consistently being named as a substitute with only short runs in the team when other players were out of action with injuries or suspension.
