Abdennour is so unwanted by Valencia that he has been told to stay on holiday Valencia No place for him in Marcelino's squad

Valencia still own the rights to Aymen Abdennour, but they don't want him for their 2019/20 squad and have told him to extend his holiday rather than report for pre-season.

Along with Nacho Gil, he is the only first-team squad member who doesn't have a date to show up for summer training.

The defender still has one year left on his Valencia contract and his salary is above average, so it's a complicated situation for Los Che.

Marseille had him on loan for the past two seasons, but that agreement has ended and Valencia are now trying to find a landing spot for the Tunisian.

There was an agreement in principle with Brescia, but the player wasn't in favour of the destination and declined.

Toulouse are also believed to be interested, but there is nothing official.
