Given he's in the last 6 months of his contract he can sign for free elsewhere. He's desirable to many teams because he's available on a free transfer. Teams interest in him will evaporate if a new deal is done with River and they have to pay a multi million fee for him.

Valencia appear to have the strongest links at the moment.
Money talks though and although just a rumor the words "Giovinco money" were being thrown around already. He's not getting that from Valencia.
