Tottenham Hotspur are keen on signing Javi Guerra from Valencia in the coming months.
According to Fichajes, the 21-year-old central midfielder is valued at €35 million and Tottenham are now ‘preparing a formal offer’ to sign him. However, the North London club are unwilling to meet the asking price.
It will be interesting to see if they can negotiate a more reasonable fee with the Spanish club. Javi Guerra is highly rated in Spain and he is regarded as one of the brightest young talents in La Liga right now. He could develop into a top-class player for Tottenham with the right guidance and it is no surprise that Valencia are demanding a premium.
It will be interesting to see if the two clubs can negotiate a more reasonable fee in the coming weeks. Tottenham need someone who can stitch the play together and control the tempo of the game. The 21-year-old has the technical attributes to do well in English football and he could be a key player for Tottenham. He has the skill set to complement the likes of Yves Bissouma and Pape Matar Sarr.
The talented young midfielder needs to play regularly at this stage of his career, and he should seek gametime assurance as before, making the move to the London club. He cannot afford to sit on the bench at a big club at this stage of his career.
The opportunity to play in the Premier League can be quite attractive for most players and it remains to be seen whether Guerra is keen on the move.
