Newcastle Left Back Jose Enrique Denies Negotiations With Liverpool

Newcastle left back Jose Enrique has been so strongly linked to a move to Anfield that some have gone as far to declare his move a "done deal."

The 25-year-old Spaniard, though, isn't ready to admit to such — if it is, in fact, the case.

"Liverpool is a big club, but I am not negotiating with them at the moment. I am calm at Newcastle," said Enrique, according to Sky Sports.

Enrique, though, does wish to play for the Spanish National Team, an aspiration that may require a move to a bigger club.

"My dream is to play for the Spain national side and I think that I have a chance.

"I have improved as a footballer since my arrival to England. The Premier League is more competitive than La Liga and I have not received offers to return to Spain," he said.

Enrique is valued at £4.8 million, according to TransferMarkt.co.uk.
