Cristhian Mosquera says yes to Arsenal transfer as Premier League rivals beaten
Arsenal are looking to close a deal for Valencia centre-back Cristhian Mosquera after intensifying their interest in the Spain U21 international defender Arsenal sporting director Andrea Berta is pressing to conclude the signing of 20-year-old Valencia centre-back Cristhian Mosquera. RB Leipzig had been leading the charge for the Spain youth international, who has recently been away at the U21 European Championships in Slovakia, before the Bundesliga outfit pulled out of the running over financials. Arsenal's pursuit of Mosquera is not reactive to those developments, however, and Spanish sources insist Berta first established contact to register the Gunners' interest in early May. Mosquera, who can also play as a right-back, is viewed as the perfect understudy to William Saliba and has also attracted admirers at Aston Villa, Bournemouth, Bayer Leverkusen and Atletico Madrid. However, Arsenal are now advancing in discussions and are understood to be confident that an agreement can be struck for a cut-price - potentially under £17million (€20m) - because Mosquera is set to enter the final year of his contract next week. Valencia had been keen to tie Mosquera down to fresh terms but dialogue between the parties has stalled over recent months as the player was reluctant to include a sizeable release clause in any new deal as it may have priced him out of a move at a later stage. The La Liga club, who are battling financial problems, had still vowed to make Mosquera a competitive contract offer following face-to-face talks with his agent Sergio Barila earlier this month but that proposal is still yet to have arrived and the highly-coveted defender is now giving his priority to Arsenal with personal terms considered a formality. Problematically for Valencia, they're also trying to fight off interest in their other two centre-backs, Cesar Tarrega (who partnered Mosquera at the U21 Euros) and Yarek Gasiorowski after receiving approaches from Bologna and Feyenoord, respectively, and in their view, Mosquera represents their most-valuable asset so they may attempt to drive a hard bargain. Their negotiating position is also significantly weakened by the fact that Mosquera is keen on joining Arsenal and that he'll be a free agent in 2026 if they refuse to sell. Arsenal have already completed early deals for Martin Zubimendi and goalkeeper Kepa Arrizabalaga, only official announcements are pending, and Brentford captain Christian Norgaard is also set to sign on the dotted line at the Emirates following a breakthrough in talks with Brentford on Wednesday afternoon. Berta has been scanning the market for defensive opportunities for Mikel Arteta, who has stressed he wants to improve his squad depth at centre-back, with Crystal Palace's Marc Guehi and Club Brugge defender Joel Ordonez also among the list of options that have been considered. Interest in versatile Dutch U21 star Jorrel Hato remains ongoing but at this stage, any deal would likely depend on the futures of Oleksandr Zinchenko and Jakub Kiwior plus Ajax's potential asking price.

Stuttgart's transfer budget could fuel ambitious summer
With several players attracting serious interest across Europe, the Bundesliga side are reported to have significant funds at their disposal to strengthen their squad even without major sales. The club has already made its first move on the market, securing the signing of right-back Lorenz Assignon for a reported €12 million. But according to Sport Bild, Stuttgart's war chest is far from depleted; they still have an estimated €25-30 million available for further reinforcements. Advertisement And that figure could increase even more if some of Stuttgart's most in-demand stars are sold. Woltemade, Stiller, Chabot in demand Several VfB players are currently on the radar of major clubs. Nick Woltemade, who is starring for Germany at the U21 European Championships in Slovakia, is expected to decide his future after the tournament. Meanwhile, Angelo Stiller and defensive leader Jeff Chabot are also being targeted. Stiller is reportedly drawing interest from Liverpool and Real Madrid, while Juventus are again keen on Chabot. Despite the growing interest, Stuttgart are not actively looking to part ways with any of the trio. All three are considered integral to Sebastian Hoeneß's setup heading into the 2025/26 campaign. Millot's departure is expected - Successors lined up In contrast, the departure of Enzo Millot appears increasingly likely. The French midfielder is believed to be close to having his release clause set at €18 million triggered. Advertisement Stuttgart, however, are already working on potential replacements. As per Bild, high on their shortlist are Paul Wanner of Bayern München and Barcelona youngster Noah Darvich. Additionally, Bild reports that the club has initiated talks with Giannis Konstantelias, a 22-year-old Greek international currently playing for PAOK.
