Espanyol join the race for Alcacer

There are less than two weeks to go until the start of La Liga and Paco Alcacer still doesn't know which team he will play for. He knows that getting playing time at Villarreal is an almost impossible task.

The Spanish club are trying to find a destination for the player from Torrent, who is looking forward to leaving the team in search of more opportunities.

Thus, 'AS' highlighted that Espanyol, in the midst of the Raul de Tomas deal, have shown interest in the Spanish international. The Catalan side have enquired about the striker's situation.

But they are not the only team interested in the Villarreal player. Both Hertha Berlin, in the Bundesliga, and Valencia, in La Liga, are keeping an eye on his situation.
