Mascherano: No Real Madrid, Depor contact

River Plate midfielder Javier Mascherano is refusing to consider a move to Spain - or England - until a concrete offer arrives.

The Argentina international is being chased by Deportivo La Coruna and Real Madrid from Spain, while Premiership champs Arsenal are also keen.

"I'm staying on the margin of what is possible, there has been nothing more but rumors," he said.

"If a team really comes in with an offer and there is a concrete interest, then we will see."

"I know very clearly that I cannot live on dreams, but on realities."

Mascherano added: "The leagues of Spain and England seem to me to be the best ones. Italy doesn't interest me."
