Ronald Koeman has confirmed that he is in the running to challenge Juventus and take Mohamed Sissoko back to Valencia from Liverpool to bolster his midfield.
The Dutch coach believes that the 22-year-old Mali international is the perfect player to step into the defensive midfield position as he bids to change the fortunes at Mestalla.
Juve looked to be favourites to land Sissoko, but a return to Spain may tempt the player that has fallen down the pecking order at Anfield this season.
”We know the deal is complicated but it is not complete,” said Koeman. “He has all the characteristics of the player we need.”
Valencia are looking for a new player to add strength to the midfield after David Albelda was told that he was no longer wanted at the club.
Sissoko made 45 appearances for Los Ché in a two-year stint at the club after he joined them in 2003 from his first professional side, Auxerre.
In his first season at Mestalla, he helped the club to win the Spanish title, the UEFA Cup and the European Super Cup.
A successful switch to Liverpool then saw him enjoy success in the European Super Cup, again, the FA Cup and the Community Shield.
