Arsenal prepare €20-25m offer for La Liga starlet

Arsenal have no intention of giving up on Valencia defender Cristhian Mosquera, after their latest offer was turned down. The 21-year-old has shown a clear desire to leave Mestalla this summer, and the Gunners are going to do their best to make that happen. Mosquera has a €90m release clause, but after attracting the interest of a number of the European elite, including AC Milan and Atletico Madrid, contract talks with Valencia have stalled. Now with just a year left on his deal, Los Che will likely have to sell the Spain under-21 international in order to avoid losing him for free next year.

This week, with Mosquera now hopeful of a move to London, and contract terms agreed, an offer did arrive to put Mosquera on a €3m per annum deal. However he has turned it down, as he pursues a higher wage and Champions League football.

Their latest offer was €14m, but Sporting Director Andrea Berta's next effort will be in the region of €20-25m, with a potential for an extra €3-5m in variables available.
