Aderlan Santos to Valencia

Braga defender Aderlan Santos is close to joining Valencia after undergoing a medical with Nuno Santos’ team.

AS reports the procedure took place on Thursday as Los Che look for a centre-back to replace Nicolas Otamendi, who joined Manchester City.

The 26-year-old Brazilian has been at Braga since a 2012 move from Trofense and it had been claimed Valencia would send Santos to Monaco in return for Aymen Abdennour.

AS insist however that Santos’ transfer isn’t related to any deal for Abdennour and he is one of two or three players the club hopes to sign before the end of the transfer window, including Real Madrid’s Denis Cheryshev.
