The clash between Valencia and Atlético de Madrid this Saturday will have an extra incentive beyond the three points at stake. The colchonero team has set its sights on two young talents from Valencia's squad: Javi Guerra and Cristhian Mosquera. Both players have been on Atletico's radar for a while and could become top priorities for the upcoming transfer market.
Javi Guerra:
Diego Simeone already tried to sign Javi Guerra last summer. In fact, the midfielder was very close to landing at the Metropolitano, but the deal fell through at the last minute due to changes in the economic conditions proposed by Atlético. Valencia, firm in its stance, demanded 25 million euros plus variables and a percentage of future sale, something the Madrid club did not accept. However, the interest remains, and the young midfielder remains on 'Cholo's' wish list to strengthen his midfield for the upcoming season.
Cristhian Mosquera:
On the other hand, Mosquera has also caught Atletico's eye. With the possible departure of players like Witsel, Azpilicueta, and Lenglet, the rojiblanco defense needs reinforcements, and the Valencian defender fits perfectly into the profile they are looking for at the Metropolitano. Although the backline was recently renewed, and his continuity at Mestalla seemed assured, his future could change if a compelling offer arrives.
