Arsenal has a long history of signing Spanish midfielders, and they continued that trend this summer by bringing in Mikel Merino from Real Sociedad.
Next summer, they could add another Spaniard to support Merino in midfield, as they have already identified a potential target for the role.
The Gunners are among several clubs tracking Valencia’s young talent Javi Guerra, who has emerged as one of the brightest prospects in Spain.
Guerra has been performing well as a regular in Valencia’s first team, attracting the attention of top clubs across Europe.
While Arsenal currently has good depth in midfield, they may lose Thomas Partey and Jorginho next season, as both players are in the final year of their contracts. The Gunners are likely to let them leave.
To prepare for this, Arsenal is looking for a replacement, and Guerra could be a long-term solution for the role.
According to an exclusive report from Caught Offside, Arsenal’s interest in Guerra is serious. His release clause is set at €100 million, but Valencia would be willing to sell him for around 30% of that fee, which presents a great deal for potential buyers.
Just Arsenal Opinion
Guerra seems to be one of the finest youngsters in Spain, and if we buy him, we will be signing a good talent.

So the ink won’t even dry up on the just ended summer window signatures before another exhausting round of transfer speculations are on us?😭
“good depth in midfield”? Odegaard, Merino both injured. Rice out for 1 game. Leaves Partey, Joghinho and…?
…and Havertz.
Can’t say I’d heard of him before this article. However, if he’s really that good then I would have thought that Barcelona or even Real Madrid could be interested next summer, particularly if there’s a substantial discount on his release clause.
Anyway, we’ve only just got this window out of the way, so the next summer window is a long way off yet.
