Coquelin completes Villarreal switch
Francis Coquelin has left Valencia after two and a half seasons, joining Villarreal on a four-year deal.
Villarreal have completed the signing of Francis Coquelin from rivals Valencia, with Dani Parejo seemingly set to follow.
Former Arsenal midfielder Coquelin has signed a four-year deal with Villarreal, having spent two and a half seasons with Valencia, winning the 2018-19 Copa del Rey.
It is anticipated Parejo, the Valencia skipper, will join his team-mate in making the short trip to El Madrigal.
Parejo had previously spoken of retiring at Valencia but was subsequently criticised by new Manchester City signing Ferran Torres.
