Valencia has proposed a new contract to Christian Mosquera to deter his move to Arsenal, according to sources speaking to ESPN.
Recently, ESPN reported that Mikel Arteta’s team had reached an agreement with Mosquera, initiating conversations with Valencia regarding a transfer fee close to £15 million ($20 million).
Desperate to retain Mosquera for at least another season, Valencia is working hard, although a source indicated that the likelihood of him extending his contract at the club is slim.
At just 20, Mosquera has become one of Europe’s most sought-after young center-backs.
Mosquera has already represented Spain at the under-21 level and has been pivotal for Valencia over the last two seasons amid their struggles in La Liga.
While RB Leipzig has shown interest in the promising defender, sources indicate that Arsenal remains in the strongest position to secure his signature.
**Fan Take:** This news is significant for soccer fans as it highlights the competitive nature of player transfers, especially for young talent like Mosquera. His potential move to Arsenal could reshape the team’s defense and signal their intention to build a stronger squad for future successes.
