HUGE BOOST: Arsenal’s Top Defensive Target’s Intentions Clear — He Wants Gunners Move Despite New Contract Offer from Current Club

Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera has reportedly made his intentions clear regarding a potential summer move.
 

Arsenal have been strongly linked with a move for the 21-year-old in recent weeks, with reports suggesting that a deal is being pursued.

The Gunners' initial €14m offer was rejected by Valencia, but a second, improved bid is believed to be imminent.

Now, Fabrizio Romano reports that Mosquera is keen to join Arsenal this summer.

Valencia, meanwhile, are said to have offered the Spanish centre-back a new contract in an effort to ward off interest from Mikel Arteta's side.

However, Romano adds that Mosquera's stance is firm: he only wants to join Arsenal this summer — a major boost for the North London club in their pursuit of the highly rated defender.
