Cape Town - Alvaro Negredo insists his departure from Manchester City had nothing to do with being "homesick" but rather that he had fallen out of favour with Manuel Pellegrini.
The former Sevilla striker returned to his homeland at the start of the season when he joined Spanish La Liga outfit Valencia on a year-long loan from the English Premier League champions.
Negredo helped Pellegrini's side reclaim the domestic league title as well as steering them to the Capital One Cup trophy with his 23 goals in 48 appearances.
