Report: Nuno wants striker in January

It’s claimed Valencia Coach Nuno Santo wants the club to sign a new striker in January and said so at a meeting with President Lay Hoon Chan.

Super Deporte claim the conversation took place on Wednesday and the trainer explained that an addition to the forward ranks was needed to help the team score more goals.

There’s concern over the situation with Alvaro Negredo, who has been out of the squad for recent games, although Nuno has publically insisted Negredo’s absence is for sporting reasons.

Nuno’s bosses trust him to handle Negredo but it’s not known if the Valencia hierarchy will agree to his request for a winter signing, and nor are any possible names mentioned as targets.
