Miguel Could Leave Valencia After Mimicking Coach Unai Emery – Report
Portuguese full-back caught on camera imitating coach…

According to Marca, the incident could be seen as the final straw and signal the end of the defender’s stay in Spain.
The incident occurred during Valencia’s match against Valladolid on Saturday night when Miguel was again relegated to the bench due to the fine form of former Almeria right-back Bruno.
As Unai Emery paced up and down the touchline applauding his team, cameras caught Miguel sitting in the dug-out imitating the coach’s actions and laughing with team-mates Alejandro Dominguez and Nikola Žigic.
It is thought both Dominguez and Zigic may also find themselves in hot water over the incident as both were captured laughing at Miguel’s impersonation.
