Atletico Madrid striker Diego Forlan has revealed that he has no “really good offer” on his table at the moment but is open to a move in the summer.

The Uruguay international forward’s future at the Vicente Calderon is up in the air as reports continue to link him with a move out of the Spanish capital after a disappointing season.

Forlan, 31, has sent mixed signals over the past months, claiming that he is happy playing for Atletico but always keeping himself open to a move.

“It would have to be a really good offer,” said the former Manchester United striker, according to ESPNSoccernet.

“At the moment there is none, so I didn’t consider anything. But at the moment, I have two years more of a contract at Atletico Madrid and it’s a good team and I am happy there. You never know.”

Forlan will feature for Uruguay in their international friendly against the Republic of Ireland on Tuesday and is hopeful of a victory.

“They played a qualifying game on Saturday and some of the players have been playing a lot of games and have been rested,” said the 2010 World Cup Golden Ball winner.

“But we came here to play a nice game against Ireland. It doesn’t matter who they are playing, we are going to do our best to win the game.

“I know the team, I have been watching some games and we are always watching players. We know it will be a really tough team with good players.

“It doesn’t matter whether they are young or old, every player all over the world when they get the chance to play for their national team is going to try to do their best. In this case we expect that.”
