Third in the Ligue 1 standings, two points behind leader Brest, Paris Saint-Germain is not having the best start to the season in its history. But this year, the capital club gives the impression of being better structured and more coherent on the pitch. An observation drawn up thanks to the work of Luis Enrique, but also to the recruitment campaign carried out by Luis Campos.
Certainly, the PSG football advisor has worked with an exclusive partner (Jorge Mendes) to strengthen the Rouge et Bleu as best as possible, but it is clear that, for the moment, his choices are paying off. However, there are still some adjustments to be made, especially in the middle. The Parisian midfield greatly appreciates the arrival of watchdog Manuel Ugarte, the emergence of Warren Zaire-Emery and the release of Vitinha, but it still lacks depth. Especially since the (forced) departure of Marco Verratti. And Campos would already have this reinforcement in mind.
Javi Guerra, the revelation
Spanish media Tribuna Deportiva indeed claims that several major European clubs such as Manchester City, Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, Manchester United, Newcastle, FC Barcelona and therefore PSG have an eye on Javi Guerra. Aged 20 and under contract with Valencia until 2027, the Spanish midfielder has impressed since the start of the season. Author of 3 goals and 1 assist in 6 matches, the international Espoir is the ray of sunshine for a club that has been seriously shaken up sportingly in recent months.
A midfielder described as “all-terrain”, Javi Guerra can play as a sentry or relay runner, even if he has more of a number 6 profile. With a good sense of projection, he knows how to use his technique to bring danger in attack. His statistics (mentioned above) speak for him. Used in a 4-2-3-1, Javi Guerra is a nugget that Valencia wants to protect. The player has a release clause of €100 million and four years left on his contract. After recruiting Carlos Soler, will PSG do business with the VCF again? Small detail, which may have been important: Javi Guerra is not linked to Jorge Mendes, but he has the same agent as a certain Kang-in Lee… To be continued.
