Spanish side Valencia are willing to do whatever it takes to keep EURO 2008 winners David Silva and David Villa next season, vice president Fernando Gomez said.

"Who wouldn't want to count on them?" Gomez was quoted as saying in Spanish media.

"I will do everything possible so that they continue with us, the president also has that intention."

Several European clubs are believed to be interested in the duo.

Tottenham Hotspur and their Spanish manager Juande Ramos are long-time admirers of Villa, who said earlier this summer that he would welcome a move to the Premiership.

Silva is courted by Atletico Madrid as the Spanish-capital side aim to rebuild the team next season.

However, Gomez said Valencia received no offers for any of them.

"I also have no offer on the table, although I will study all those that arrive for any player," he said.
