Arsenal Reported as Most Proactive Suitor for Levante’s Karl Etta Eyong as Premier League Push Grows
Reports point to a buy-now, loan-back plan shaped by FIFA limits.
Overview
- Spanish and UK reports say Arsenal aim to secure a January agreement for the 22-year-old, then loan him back to Levante because he has already played for two clubs this season.
- Radio MARCA journalist Matteo Moretto reports strong Premier League interest, and the player is said to view England as a good fit for his profile.
- Barcelona and Real Madrid remain in the mix, with Spanish reports casting him as a possible long-term successor to Robert Lewandowski at Barcelona.
- Contract details reported locally cite release clauses of around €30m for Spanish clubs and €40m for foreign clubs, with MARCA adding that Villarreal could retain up to 80% of any future sale.
- Levante reportedly turned down a €30m offer from CSKA Moscow and have signaled reluctance to sell mid-season, while Eyong has publicly stressed his focus on performing for Levante.
