Demy de Zeeuw could finally make his move away from AZ in the winter transfer window after Valencia made an official enquiry about his services, according to De Telegraaf.

The 25-year-old came close to leaving the Alkmaar-based outfit in the summer when he appeared to be set to join Ajax, but that transfer fell through.

Valencia have been monitoring De Zeeuw since last term and are now ready to test AZ's resolve with a bid if they are encouraged after initial contact has been made.

Los Che coach Unai Emery is hoping to add a number of his own signings to a squad that he was unable to influence when taking over at the end of last season.

While the summer months were spent trying to hold on to David Villa and David Silva amid an off-field power struggle at boardroom level, only goalkeeper Renan was signed.

The rest of the incoming players returned to the club because their loan deals had finished or the club opted to repurchase them, as in Pablo's case when he moved from Getafe.

De Zeeuw would be Emery's first out-field signing and he is keen to wrap up a deal as quickly as possible and it appears that AZ tainer Louis van Gaal is resigned to losing the Dutch international.
