Thierry Correia in Valencia to complete move LaLiga A promising right-back

Thierry Correia is in Valencia to complete his medical and sign his contract at Mestalla as Los Che have reached an agreement with Sporting CP for his transfer.

Correia will sign for a total of around 15 million euros, a sum which includes both fixed a variable amounts.

Valencia put the wheels in motion on Wednesday after Cristiano Piccini's injury was confirmed to be a fractured kneecap. Correia, 20, is thought to have potential similar to Joao Cancelo, despite having just seven first-team appearances under his belt.

Jorge Mendes did play a part in the negotiations, although he's not a Gestifute player.

Los Che had shown an interest in Elseid Hysaj of Napoli as well but the Partenopei wanted between 20 to 25 million euros for the Albanian.
