Report: Arsenal target Yunus Musah ready for a new challenge
Yunus Musah is thought to be ready for a new challenge, according to a report from The Athletic, in news which will certainly alert those working behind the scenes at Arsenal.
Musah was one of the revelations of this World Cup, playing a key role in the USMNT’s midfield on their way to the last 16 in Qatar.
His performances at the tournament came after his best spell yet with Valencia. And with that, he is attracting attention ahead of the January transfer window.
Musah ready for new challenge
Fabrizio Romano told CBS Sports that Arsenal had sent scouts to watch the 20-year-old. Meanwhile, 90min claimed that Liverpool have now made their move for the midfielder.
And it seems that Musah is considering his future.
The Athletic reports that the American is thought to be keen on taking on a new challenge after his spell with Los Che.
Valencia meanwhile, want more than £20 million for the youngster. But they are willing to listen to offers for Musah and hope that his World Cup displays spark something of a bidding war.
With Arsenal and Liverpool keen, it is not hard to imagine that Musah will get the chance to move on when the window opens.
He appears to have an incredibly high ceiling. And both the Premier League leaders and the Reds need reinforcements in the middle of the park.
He has been labelled a ‘stunning‘ talent. And CBS Sports has suggested that he has a release clause worth around £86 million.
If Valencia are willing to accept less than £30 million, it seems to be an opportunity that is too good to back away from.
