Levante’s Karl Etta Eyong In Demand With January Exit Off the Table

FIFA’s two‑club rule leaves only pre‑agreements or a loan‑back on the table.

Overview

  • Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea have scouted the 22-year-old, with West Ham making an initial enquiry, while Barcelona and Real Madrid are also tracking him.
  • Levante chief executive José Danvila says the club will not sell in January, confirming one firm offer was rejected and that no Premier League bids have arrived.
  • Because he has already played for Villarreal and Levante this season, any January deal would be for future registration, and reports suggest Arsenal could agree a transfer then loan him back.
  • Levante previously rebuffed a €30m proposal from CSKA Moscow; his release clause is believed to vary from about €30m to €40m, and Villarreal retain sell-on terms and matching rights.
  • A report relayed by Yahoo Sports claims Barcelona boss Hansi Flick has vetoed a move for Eyong, an unconfirmed development that would cloud Barça’s pursuit.
