UEFA Europa League
Valencia is seeing how the option of having Enzo Barrenechea back is becoming more complicated, one of the most important pieces of last season. The Argentine midfielder, whose future remains uncertain, has sparked the interest of two giants of Portuguese football: Benfica and Porto, who are willing to spend more money than Valencia to secure his services.
Aston Villa, the player's owner, is not planning to keep him immediately, but they are looking for a definitive sale that allows them to recover their investment and even make a profit. Marca reports that a year ago, the English club paid just over seven million euros to Juventus, and now they have valued him at around 12 million euros. An amount that Valencia cannot reach at the moment.

Although the possibility of repeating the loan of the midfielder is not ruled out at Mestalla, it all depends on whether more attractive proposals do not arrive at Villa Park. If no sale occurs before the market closes, the English club might consider a new loan, but this time they would demand a fee for the loan, in addition to the player's full salary.
Sources close to the player state that if the loan formula is repeated, his desire would be to return to Valencia. However, if Benfica or Porto make strong moves, Valencia could lose a key piece for Baraja's project.
