Overview

• Ron Gourlay, named CEO on May 29, is due to arrive in Valencia early next week after nearly a month working off-site.
• To date, only defender Dimitri Foulquier has secured a new contract under his mandate.
• Negotiations for Athletic Bilbao goalkeeper Julen Agirrezabala’s loan are hampered by the price of the purchase option.
• Homegrown defenders Cristhian Mosquera, César Tárrega, Javi Guerra and Diego López are engaged in renewal talks while holding firm offers from other clubs.
• With the pre-season set to kick off on July 4, Gourlay must clear a backlog of transfer and squad preparations once on site.
