Thanks for the info, in that case the interest may be real. Javi can play as defender midfielder and central defender, Benfica plays most of the times in 4-1-3-2 and he is vital in the defensive process, his stats show he sees a yellow card every 6 games for the Champions, what I think is not that bad. Anyway he is vital for Benfica, I don't think they will release him easily because they don't have any replacement and the market is about to close. BTW The other name that was mentioned was Garay, the Argentinian central defender, ex-Real Madrid as well.
