So far, Matheus Cunha and Diego Leon have joined the club, though Leon, due to his youth, is not expected to make an immediate impact on the first team.
While United are clearly investing in young talent for the future, they also need players who can contribute right away and elevate the team’s performance.
Last season, United finished in the bottom half of the Premier League table and ended the campaign without any silverware.
Now, in a surprising development, Longo has reported that United are closing in on a deal for Guerra, who has been a standout performer in La Liga.
Although the 22-year-old has a release clause of around €100 million, reports suggest Valencia may accept a bid closer to €30 million.
Despite his age, Guerra has already amassed significant top-flight experience, making 89 appearances in La Liga, including 36 last season alone.
A versatile central midfielder, Guerra played a key role under Carlos Corberán as Valencia climbed from relegation danger to mid-table stability.
With Christian Eriksen departing earlier this summer and Casemiro nearing the twilight of his career, United are clearly targeting a younger midfield profile.
If the club can secure Guerra for a fee well below his release clause, it could prove to be a smart piece of business—bringing in a player with both immediate quality and long-term potential.
