Real Valladolid have reportedly joined Rayo Vallecano in the race to sign Sporting Lisbon forward Jeffren Suarez.
The 26-year-old was once regarded as one of the best talents in La Liga during his time with Barcelona, but his career stalled before moving to Sporting in 2011.
The attacker's agent Brian Pugach recently revealed that Rayo had made contact for his client, but reports in Spain have claimed that Valladolid are the other Spanish team in the picture.
It is understood that Sporting are not prepared to sanction a loan move for the former Spain Under-21 international.
