Former Atletico Madrid forward Adrian Lopez has returned to Spain after his annus horribilis at Porto.

He made nine league appearances with the Portuguese giants last season, but did not tally a goal and sat as an unused sub 14 times.

After not being selected in the squad for the first three games of this campaign, it was clear that Adrian was surplus to requirements at Estadio do Dragao.

Villarreal picked up the two-time Spain international on a loan deal for the 2015-16 season. The Asturian has not played for his national team for over three years.
