Valencia have reportedly received a bid from Aston Villa
for their imposing Serbian striker Nikola Zigic.
The 6ft 7in target-man has attracted interest from clubs across
Europe as Valencia look set to part ways with the Serbia
international.
Zigic has been informed that he does not feature in new
coach Unai Emery’s plans after an inconspicuous spell at La
Mestalla.
The former Racing Santander forward has been linked with a move
to the Premier League over recent months and Villa have now
reportedly put a firm offer on the table.
Valencia sporting director Juan Sanchez claims Villa have made
an offer for Zigic and that the player will make a decision on his
future in the next few days.
"The player and his agent know about the offer and we expect
them to make a decision in the coming days," Sanchez is quoted as
saying in the Sunday Mirror.
