Guerra, in his prime, awaits Atlético
Javi Guerra, the young talent from Valencia, is in top form just before facing Atlético de Madrid. The player, who was close to signing for the ‘Rojiblancos’ last summer, has established himself as a key player in Carlos Corberán’s system.
His improvement is remarkable, especially in the offensive aspect, where he stands out in ball progressions, shots on goal, and successful dribbles. Although his transfer to Atlético did not materialize, the Madrid club continues to have Guerra on their radar.
However, the player is focused on helping Valencia climb positions in the standings and has rejected offers, such as the one from Porto in January. His main goal is Valencia. Meanwhile, Gallagher, the alternative that Atlético chose instead of Guerra, does not seem to have fully established himself in the team.
Despite having played a good number of minutes, his role has been decreasing and he does not seem likely to start in the next game against Valencia. The Atlético fans will be watching Guerra’s performance closely, a player who could have worn the Atlético shirt and will now seek to prove his worth on the field.
