Nicolás Otamendi is back
The day has arrived. Nicolás Otamendi is back. Or at least he should be. He is called up by Nuno for today in Paterna, and it does not seem like the intention of the Argentine center-back is to strain the situation further. Not at least publicly. He already did it with his statements to ESPN during the concentration of Argentina for the Copa América, and 36 days later he is still a Valencia player. His future will continue to be talked about in the coming weeks because neither Manchester United nor their neighbor City have forgotten about him. However, his case enters another phase in the sense that Otamendi will be working with Valencia again starting today, and this afternoon he will travel to Kamen with the team.
Another name in Valencia: Álvaro Negredo
In his case, it's because he didn't play a single minute in the friendly against PSV. He did not do it due to technical decision, as AS confirmed that he has no physical discomfort. He was the only one, aside from Yoel (Ryan and Jaume played), and Feghouli (injured), that Nuno did not count on. Nuno prefers Rodrigo.
