Brentford signed the Ecuadorian midfielder and immediately sent him out on loan

English Brentford worked on the transfer market this summer also in the context of strengthening for the future. The Bees have announced the signing of 18-year-old Ecuadorian midfielder Darwin Guagua from Independiente del Valle for an undisclosed fee. The contract with the football player is signed until 2031 with the possibility of extension for one more season. However, the newcomer will start his performances in England late - this will be preceded by a one-year loan at the Spanish club Merida, who plays in Segunda. The Transfermarkt portal estimated the player at 2 million euros. Last season, Guagua had two goals and three assists in 20 games (891 minutes).
