Manchester City outcast Eliaquim Mangala set for Valencia loan switch on Deadline Day

Valencia are nearing the signing of Manchester City defender Eliaquim Mangala.

Mangala has fallen out of favour under new manager Pep Guardiola and has now been spotted at the Spanish club’s training ground.

Mangala was considered last summer as part of the deal that took Nicolas Otamendi to City from Valencia, while the Spanish side are also looking at Zenit's Ezequiel Garay.
