Arsenal to hold further talks over a move for Real Valladolid right-back Ivan Fresneda and could pay the 18-year-old's £8.8m buy-out clause as Mikel Arteta looks to add more depth to his title-chasing side

Daily Mail | January 21, 2023

Arsenal will hold further talks this week with the agent of Real Valladolid's highly-rated right-back Ivan Fresneda.

The Gunners have moved back into pole position for the 18-year-old who has a buy-out clause set at £8.8million. Newcastle United made attempts to sign the teenager last week but have now switched back to West Ham right-back Harrison Ashby, 21.

Fresneda was left out of Valladolid's starting line-up on Saturday as they lost to Atletico Madrid and has a number of clubs showing interest.
