Valencia are in talks with Manchester United midfielder Andreas Pereira about a permanent deal this summer.
AS says Valencia met with Kia Joorabchian a fortnight ago with a view to finalising a permanent Pereira move from United in the summer.
Joorabchian, who represented Carlos Tevez at United, could be acting as an intermediary between the three parties.
Joorabchian recently presided over client Philippe Coutinho's move to Barcelona.
Pereira is on-loan at Valencia from United to the end of this season.
