‘I tried to persuade him to join the Saudi league, but he insisted on joining Arsenal.’ Neymar Jr has announced that his £60 million international partner will join Arteta side Arsenal in January.

Arsenal are aiming to bolster their midfield and are considering a number of options ahead of the January transfer window.

The Gunners are thought to be interested in Aston Villa midfielder Douglas Luiz, but Edu and Mikel Arteta have other alternatives.

One of those alternatives is Valencia midfielder Javi Guerra, according to 90Min, who has been followed by Arsenal’s scouting team for months.

Arsenal may make a bid for Javi Guerra.
According to 90Min, Arsenal is scouting Guerra as they consider their next move in terms of bringing in a new midfielder.

The Gunners spent significant money on Declan Rice over the summer, but Thomas Partey’s future remains uncertain. As a result, Mikel Arteta is rumored to be considering a number of signings.

Guerra, 20, has begun to shine for Valencia since being given a shot with the first team.

Forbes earlier reported that Manchester United are interested in Guerra, who was praised by Ruben Baraja for his’very quick’ improvement in the game.

Javi Guerra is one to watch. Spain has a history of generating good players, and it appears that Javi Guerra will be another on the conveyor belt.

Guerra has looked the part in midfield at times, and at only 20, the sky is the limit for the youngster.

Of course, anything can happen, and he has plenty of time for his career to go in any direction. However, a move to Arsenal and working under Mikel Arteta may appeal to Guerra, who will be inspired by Martin Odegaard’s departure from La Liga.

If Arsenal wins this race, there will undoubtedly be many unhappy clubs around Europe.
