Valencia signed a pair of defenders on Tuesday, including Spain Under-21 defender Victor Ruiz from Napoli.
The 22-year-old Ruiz, who recently helped Spain to the Under-21 European Championship title, agreed to a five-year deal.
Valencia sport director Braulio Vazquez says Ruiz ''will complement our defense due to his characteristics.''
Valencia also signed Antonio Barragan on a four-year deal from second division side Valladolid. The 24-year-old Spanish defender previously played at Liverpool and Deportivo La Coruna.
