Manchester United youngster Andreas Pereira will spend the 2017/18 season on loan at Valencia CF in Spain, after a deal was agreed between the two clubs late on Friday night. 

The 21-year-old forward completed the move on deadline day in Spain, which is 24 hours later than it is England. He is now looking forward to linking up with Valencia manager Marcelino García Toral, whose side have made an encouraging start to the La Liga campaign by earning four points from a possible six. 

Pereira, who has made 13 senior appearances for United and scored one goal, knows what it takes to play in Spain following his previous year-long loan at Granada throughout the 2016/17 season.

Although his temporary side were unfortunately relegated, Andreas told us in the summer that the whole experience was beneficial to him. "It was a good season for me personally," he said. "For the team it was not. We had difficult times but I learned a lot, playing under pressure and trying not to go down." 

Everybody at Manchester United wishes Andreas good luck at Valencia this season.
