Juventus striker Simone Zaza: Valencia wanted me most

Juventus striker Simone Zaza has completed his loan move to Valencia.

Zaza has joined Valencia on a six-month loan from Juventus, which includes an option to buy.

“I'm here because Valencia are the club that wanted me the most," said the 25-year-old.

“I've known about Valencia's interest for a long time. When I realised that I wouldn't play much in England, I started looking into it. The team aren't in a good way, but I hope to help.

“Prandelli wanted me. When he left, I thought it was him who wanted me.

“Despite this, the same night he left, Valencia told me that they wanted me and believed in me."
