* Greece to be "removed" from markets for 3 years

* IMF and ECB opposed to bank inclusion in Greek aid

* Euro zone members to be subordinate creditors in plan

By Andreas Rinke

BERLIN, April 28 (Reuters) - A eurozone/IMF aid package for Greece will
be worth 100 to 120 billion euros over three years, according to IMF
Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn, opposition members of
Germany's parliament said after meeting him.

Juergen Trittin, a parliamentary leader for the Greens, told reporters
on Wednesday that German lawmakers were told Greece should be taken off
financial markets for three years.

"The package will run over three years," Trittin said in Berlin. "Greece
should be removed de facto from financial markets for three years."

A senior member of the opposition Social Democrats (SPD) also confirmed
details of the plan.

The International Monetary Fund and the European Central Bank rejected a
demand from some German lawmakers that banks be included in a rescue
package for Greece, said a member of Chancellor Angela Merkel's
Christian Democrats (CDU).

Norbert Barthle, the budget policy spokesman in parliament for the CDU,
said after a meeting with ECB President Jean-Claude Trichet and IMF
Managing Director Dominique Strauss-Kahn that the IMF and ECB had
opposed including the banks in the rescue.

Thomas Oppermann, a senior SPD parliamentary leader, said the IMF had
cited a figure of 120 billion euros over three years. He told reporters
that euro member states would be subordinate creditors, according to the
aid plan.

"That way it's clear Germany's involvement in the Greek rescue will not
be less than 25 billion euros," Oppermann said.

Oppermann added that there would be no automatic stamp of approval for
aid from the Bundestag, Germany's lower house of parliament.
