West Ham flop Simone Zaza is on the verge of completing a loan to Valencia, despite the shock departure of their former coach Cesar Prandelli.
The Italy international was sent back to Juventus half way through a season-long loan in east London after a miserable spell with the club.
Despite his poor form in England, Valencia were among the clubs interested on securing his services for the second half of the season with no obvious route back into the first team at Juve.
And now Cope Valencia are reporting that the La Liga sign have won the race to land him this month with a loan deal until the summer most likely.
