Nuno 'convinced' of Champions League return
New Valencia coach Nuno said fans should expect a UEFA Champions League return when Peter Lim completes his takeover.
Lim bought a majority share of the club in May and is set to take full control of Valencia in the near future.
And the Portuguese coach - appointed as Juan Antonio Pizzi's replacement on Thursday - feels the Singaporean businessman can bring glory to the club.
"As a Valencia fan I would be delighted if the strategy Lim has could be realised," Nuno said.
"Valencia would change, the club would be much stronger and be able to dream of fighting against the biggest clubs in Europe.
"No-one should doubt that with Peter Lim, everything is going to be much easier and the team's possibilities will be different."
Nuno acknowledged the procedure ahead of him being appointed coach dragged on, but that he was convinced Valencia was on the up, pledging to take them to Europe's premier club competition.
"It has been a long month," he added.
