A report claims that Argentine outfit Boca Juniors want to sign Valencia's out-of-favour defender Lucas Orban.

Argentine outfit Boca Juniors are reportedly interested in signing Valencia defender Lucas Orban.

The Argentine has not featured for Los Che since early October and is believed to have fallen out with the Spanish club's head coach Nuno.

According to Superdeporte, Boca have been made aware of the 26-year-old's precarious position at the Mestalla and are preparing a move.

Orban, who has earned two Argentine caps, started his professional career with River Plate, before moving on to Bordeaux and latterly Valencia.

A number of European clubs are also said to be monitoring proceedings.
