The Rojiblancos are aiming higher in their 2016/17 season as new Coach Jorge Sampaoli looks forward to assembling a quality squad that’ll compete in Spain and Europe on a position of strength.
Monchi spoke at a press conference during the club’s unveiling of their newest loan signing, goalkeeper Salvatore Sirigu.
According to Football Espana, Valencia’s Football Director said: “We are finalizing the transfer of Nasri.
“We are negotiating with the player and City and trying to close the deal.
“If we get Nasri, we will have got the player we have been looking for from the start. If we get him in the end, we would have the piece of the jigsaw that the boss [Sampaoli] asked for.
“I don’t think that there will be anymore movement.”
