Published on: 28 August 2016

Barcelona winger MunirEl Haddadi looks set to join La Liga rivals Valencia on a season-long loan, with a view to a permanent deal at the end of the season, according toreports.


The 20-year-old Spaniard has become a key feature in Luis Enrique's side over the past few seasons, appearing 45 times, scoring 10 goals.


But now, with Valencia strikerPaco Alcacer on the verge of signing for the Catalan giants in a £25.6m deal, Munir looks set to go the other way.


According toSport, Munir will become a Valencia player at some stage on Monday, but they will have to wait for both clubs to agree a fee if the deal is to be made permanent next summer.


Barcelona have slapped a€15m price-tag on the youngster, but Valencia are reluctant to pay more than€12m.

Munir's agent,Francesc Valdivieso, said that he is in 'no hurry' to get the deal completed, as there are still more than two days to go until the transfer window closes.


"There is no hurry because we still have two days and a few hours of themarket to go,so we will study the situation well." Valdivieso toldGoal.


He added:"They showed great interest since last Thursday and since then we have worked to get a deal done.


"It will bea year loan and then Valencia will havea purchase option at the end of this season"


While the deal for Paco Alcacer and Munir aren't directly related, it can be assumed that Valencia will sign the youngster to fill the void of Alcacer, who at 22-years-old, scored 13 La Liga for Valenciagoals last season.
