Spurs target wants Valencia transfer
Spurs were willing to offer Benjamin Stambouli as part of a deal to sign Imbula, according to recent reports, while Manchester City have also been credited with an interest in the 22-year-old.
Marseille president Vincent Labrune revealed earlier this week there were several clubs keen on signing the France Under-21 international and that they would be willing to sell for the right price.
“Today Imbula has four or five clubs after him,” Labrune told RMC. “We have offers for several players. If we have an offer that we like, we will open the door.
“We have never had as many offers for as many players as we do now. (Florian) Thauvin, Imbula and (Dimitri) Payet have a lot of offers. We have to sell someone before the 30th June in line with what we agreed with the DNCG.”
Imbula’s father and agent, Willy Ndangi, confirmed the interest in his son but claimed he wants to move to La Liga.
Asked by Valencia based-newspaper Super Deporte whether Imbula would be interested in a move to Mestalla, his father responded: “It is a great place to play football. My son would like to…he wants to play at Valencia.”
