Liverpool boss Rafa Benitez refuses to budge over his valuation of Real Madrid target Xabi Alonso.
While Real GM Jorge Valdano last night claimed that a deal for Xabi could still be salvaged, Marca says Benitez refuses to budge over his £40 million asking price for the midfielder.
Xabi is keen on a move to Madrid, but Benitez won't be pressured into backing down.
