Summary
Javier Aguirre is poised to become Valencia's new manager, with Marca reporting that a tacit agreement is in place between the club and the Mexican coach, who is currently based in Mexico. Only minor details and his signature remain before he takes charge next week to exploit the international break.
The sticking points are largely administrative: Valencia's sporting director Braulio Vázquez proposed a one-year deal with an optional second year contingent on Aguirre keeping the club up. Aguirre arrives with 30 league games to salvage Valencia's season, which could see them in or near the relegation zone depending on Sunday's result against Real Sociedad.
