Report: Arsenal set to renew bid for Ivan Fresneda following Valladolid descent

Ivan Fresneda has descended with Valladolid, so he is looking for a way out

Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta seems set to renew his bid for 18-year-old right-back Ivan Fresneda, after the descent of Valladolid. Fresneda, who was previously a prized youth player at Real Madrid, is available at a reduced price following his team’s relegation. Initially, Valladolid had valued the player at 35 million euros, but now they could sell him for half that price..

With just 26 first-team appearances after being released by Madrid’s youth academy, Fresneda fits Arsenal’s profile of signing youngsters with a hunger to improve. Fresneda would also adjust to Arteta’s budget, which seeks to strengthen his team with a view to the club’s return to the Champions League next season.
