Manchester United youngster Andreas Pereira is nearing a loan move to Valencia, according to reports in Spain.
The 21-year-old is believed to be on the verge of agreeing on a deal to play for the La Liga side for next 12 months, according to Spanish outlet Cadena Ser Radio Valencia.
Pereira was shipped out on loan to Spanish outfit Granada last season, but could not help them from getting relegated from the La Liga impressing with his brilliant displays.
The midfielder showed patches of quality, netting five goals and three assists across all competitions last season, and was tipped to stake a claim on the first team at Old Trafford this season, after travelling with them for their pre-season tour earlier this summer but has not been included in any of their matchday squads since the start of the campaign.
It is understood that the Brazilian wants to leave United on loan in order to gain more minutes due to the presence of talented stars in the midfield for the Red Devils, with the likes of Paul Pogba, Nemanja Matic, Marouane Fellaini and Ander Herrera all ahead of Pereira in the pecking order.
United boss, Jose Mourinho rates the midfielder highly but the player may not be able to force his way into contention at Old Trafford with just one year on his current deal.
