RB Leipzig is reportedly devising a strategy to persuade Cristhian Mosquera, a player also desired by Aston Villa, to join their ranks. The Bundesliga club is eager to finalize the transfer swiftly, acknowledging the strong interest from other clubs.
Aston Villa is focused on ending their successful season positively by securing a place in the Champions League for the next campaign.
Their participation in European competition this season demonstrates their ambition, and securing a spot in the Champions League for the next campaign is seen as crucial for attracting high-calibre players.
Manager Unai Emery is reportedly compiling a list of potential signings, with a specific target identified in La Liga.
Cristhian Mosquera, a product of Valencia`s academy, is a defender high on Villa`s wish list, though they face competition from other interested clubs.
Bundesliga club RB Leipzig is closely monitoring the Spain Under-23 international. Reports suggest Leipzig has maintained regular contact with the player`s representatives.
According to the German newspaper Bild, RB Leipzig intends to convince Mosquera by highlighting their successful history of developing young central defenders, showcasing their proven track record in this area.
Notable examples of central defenders who have developed at Leipzig include Dayot Upamecano, Ibrahima Konate, Mohamed Simakan, and Josko Gvardiol.
Leipzig is well aware of the significant interest surrounding Mosquera and is therefore eager to complete a transfer agreement rapidly.
Mosquera`s current contract expires after the next season. Valencia is reportedly keen to sell him this summer to avoid losing him on a free transfer and secure a fee.
