Football: Valencia's Mosquera Joins Arsenal Squad Ahead Of Closing Transfer
Spain Under: Valencia's Spain Under-21 defender Cristhian Mosquera is on the verge of signing for Arsenal after joining up with the squad on the club's Asian tour in Singapore on Wednesday. Mosquera has reportedly agreed a five-year contract, with an option to extend his stay for a further year, with Arsenal paying Valencia an initial fee of 13 million pounds (17.6 million US dollars).
The 21-year-old Mosquera has been one of the few bright spots as Valencia has struggled to avoid relegation from La Liga in the past two seasons, with the youngster missing just two games in the 2023-24 campaign and just one last season, with his power in the air and pace vital factors in keeping the club in the elite.
He will be Arsenal's fifth signing of the summer as the club aims to go one better than last season's second place in the Premier League, with goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga and forward Noni Madueke signing from Chelsea, midfielder Christian Norgaard coming in from Brentford, and Martin Zubimendi joining from Real Sociedad.
