Zigic Set for Valencia Switch

[ILBB15]

Racing Santander have agreed to sell Serbian striker Nikola Zigic to Valencia.



Skysports.com revealed earlier this week that Valencia had beaten Manchester City in the chase for Zigic, and the Spanish club have now confirmed that a five-year deal is in place.


The transfer will be completed on Friday subject to a medical, with reports in Spain suggesting Zigic will cost Valencia 15 million euros (£10.1million).


Zigic enjoyed a superb first season at Racing after joining last summer, scoring 11 times and setting up numerous other goals.


The 6ft 7in front man will compete with the likes of David Villa and Fernando Morientes for a place in the Valencia side.


He could make his debut in the UEFA Champions league qualifier against Elfsborg next week.

Could be an interesting combination with Villa, those two will cause all kinds of problems in the Primera

just my thoughts

imagine Zigic, Beckham and Giggs (at their best) in the same team

Hes a big man alrite. Makes Peter Crouch look short.

well he has Vicente who is a pretty decent crosser of the ball

And Joaquin on the other side.

True that, they should forge a fantastic partnership.

Potentially he could score shitloads of goals. Joaqin's service and Villa creates a lot himself anyway. If they gel quickly I would say this partnership will score the most goals in Europe.

Jedan je Nikola Zigic!

actually, they're of the same height (+- a cm or two), but Nikola is much stronger

Ah... the FM legend.

Would be interested to see him in action for Valencia. A Zigic - Villa combination would be tasteful.
