Valencia favourites for Mata if Willian joins Man United
Published:
Players could come and go at Old Trafford
Coral makes Valencia the most likely destination for Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata.
The La Liga outfit lead the way at 4/1, with speculation suggesting Mata could be calling time on his Old Trafford career.
That’s because Jose Mourinho is reportedly lining up a swoop for Chelsea’s Willian.
The Brazilian is now just 6/4 with the trading department to make the move north.
Coral’s Harry Aitkenhead said: “Willian was the outstanding performer in Jose Mourinho’s ill-fated final season at Chelsea and all the rumours now are pointing to a summer reunion. It would be hard to see a space for Mata if that did come true and we think a return to Valencia is most likely.”
Other potential destinations for Mata include AC Milan (5/1), Paris Saint-Germain (6/1) or perhaps even Tottenham Hotspur or Liverpool (both 8/1).
Mata would be returning to familiar surroundings should he head back to Spain. The 29-year-old spent four seasons with Valencia, and won the Copa del Rey in 2008, before joining Chelsea in 2011.
**Juan Mata’s next club
4/1 Valencia, 5/1 AC Milan, 6/1 PSG, 8/1 Tottenham, 8/1 Liverpool, 8/1 West Ham
**Willian’s next club
6/4 Manchester United, 3/1 Barcelona, 4/1 Real Madrid, 6/1 Bayern Munich, 8/1 PSG
