Satin believes Arsenal and Valencia will be outbid for Guedes

French agent Bruno Satin feels Arsenal and Valencia will be outbid by other European clubs for Goncalo Guedes.

Guedes is enjoying a productive loan spell with Valencia, who would love to make the winger’s stay a permanent one. Unfortunately for them, Guedes’ fine form has drawn interest from other European outfits.

His parent club Paris Saint-Germain see an opportunity to increase their asking price. That’s the view of French agent Bruno Satin, who told Le Parisien: “Today, Guedes is in the right place. In Valencia, he landed in a club where the competition was less strong than PSG and he arrived without concerns and with his qualities.

“In Paris, he was seen as a player for the future. Finally, alone, it will allow Paris to plug some of its financial hole. If we bring back a possible transfer estimated at €60m to the statistics of Guedes, it’s expensive.

“However, the age of the player suggests that he will continue to grow and, from this point of view, it could interest a European top club. Customers will surely be ready to put more than Valencia. And PSG can then hope to get more than €30m.”

Arsenal were linked with Guedes themselves earlier in the week. The 21-year-old is a very promising talent and would make an exciting addition to the Arsenal squad. The Gunners would also have the financial capability to do a deal, even with the price going up.

With him on loan for the season, though, Arsenal would have to wait until the summer to do a deal, at which point, several other clubs would be interested in signing him. The need to replace Alexis Sanchez is a lot more pressing than that.

Guedes signed for PSG last January but struggled for game time, hence his season-long loan to Valencia this season.
