The club announced earlier this week that the player had been suspended pending the completion of a disciplinary case, with Valencia revealing today that he will return to the squad April 21.

Valencia travels to Barcelona on April 17 and returns home to host Eibar on the 21st, meaning the 26-year-old will miss the Catalan trip this coming weekend.

The 35-time capped international appeared in 21 La Liga matches this season, 13 as a starter, pairing one goal with four assists for the struggling Los Che.
