In the summer of 2003 he finally moved to Valencia CF , and although he played here on the unfamiliar right-wing board, he was able to convince again and won the championship and the UEFA Cup with his team . The departure of Rafael Benítez and the arrival of Claudio Ranieri , who retired Jorge López, led him to RCD Mallorca on loan .
