Manchester United Nearing Deal for Valencia Midfield Star Javi Guerra
Manchester United are reportedly close to securing the signing of Valencia midfielder Javi Guerra, with talks between both clubs progressing rapidly, according to sources in Spain.
The 22-year-old talent has been turning heads in La Liga with his mature performances and is now one of United’s top midfield targets as the club looks to bolster its squad ahead of the 2025/26 season.
Negotiations are said to be in an advanced stage, and personal terms won’t be an issue, as Guerra is keen on making the switch to Old Trafford. The Spanish midfielder is excited by the opportunity to join one of the Premier League’s biggest clubs.
Guerra enjoyed a breakout campaign with Valencia last season, impressing with his technical ability, passing accuracy, and late attacking runs. He also contributes goals — a quality United have been lacking in midfield.
With Rúben Amorim now overseeing a squad rebuild at United, Guerra fits the manager’s plan of introducing younger, more dynamic players into the team. Amorim, known for his tactical demands and high-intensity style, has reportedly given his full approval for the move.
The deal also comes at a time when United’s midfield faces uncertainty — Casemiro and Eriksen’s futures are unclear, and injury setbacks to players like Mason Mount have exposed the need for reliable midfield options.
Though not yet official, reports indicate the deal is very close to completion and may be confirmed soon — possibly in time for Guerra to join the club’s preseason tour.
Respected sources including Sport TV24 and Fabrizio Romano describe the move as a smart addition for United, one that could help them climb back to the top of both English and European football.
