Miguel is again being strongly linked with a summer move after being suspended by Valencia.

Los Che confirmed in a statement that they had told Miguel he would not be allowed to train with the first-team squad for an indefinite period.

The club took the disciplinary action against the player, who they have also fined, after he turned up late for training.

A club statement read: "Valencia has decided to open disciplinary proceedings against the player Miguel Brito, after he came to training late.

"The player will work outside the group for an indefinite period and will not participate in any games."

Full-back Miguel, 31, is in his sixth season with Valencia, but has been strongly linked with a move to England.
