First Published: May 31, 2001Valencia are now looking to South America to replace their coach hector Cuper.
Cuper is to leave the Spanish club for Inter later this month and Valencia president Pedro Cortes has revived his March interest in Boca Juniors coach Carlos Bianchi.
Bianchi's Boca team powered into the Copa Libertadores semi finals as holders with a 3-0 win over Vasco da Gama last night and Bianchi has already won the Copa in the 1990s with Velez Sarsfield before a disastrous spell at AS Roma.
