🤨 Renzo Saravia: how likely is a move to Valencia, his current situation | OneFootball

Valencia CF is in the midst of an urgent search for reinforcements on their right flank following the serious injury to Foulquier.

The sporting management has set its sights on Renzo Saravia, a 32-year-old Argentine right-back who is currently a free agent. The club is looking to take advantage of LaLiga regulations that allow signings in the event of long-term injuries.

Carlos Corberán has already confirmed that the club is scouring the free agent market. Saravia, a former Argentina international, appears to be the most technically reliable option.

However, negotiations are at a complicated stage due to differences over the length of the contract, an obstacle both parties have been trying to resolve in recent days.

Saravia wants stability in Europe

Valencia is proposing an immediate signing with a "temporary" role until June 30. For his part, the player, who has financially superior offers from Brazil, Qatar, and MLS, is demanding a longer-term project. Saravia is asking for at least a one-and-a-half-year contract to return to top-level European football.

The urgency at Mestalla is real, although the improvement of Thierry and the good performance of Unai Núñez as an improvised right-back have given the team some breathing room. Even so, the club prefers a true specialist to face the decisive stretch of the season. Saravia’s profile fits the bill, but the financial aspect and contract length are the key issues at the moment.

How much time does Valencia have to sign?

Valencia has a period of 20 working days from Foulquier’s operation to register a replacement under Article 107 of the regulations. The countdown has begun, and the final decision will depend on whether the player prioritizes the sporting challenge in Spain or the financial benefit in more exotic leagues.
