Arsenal target Cristhian Mosquera has appeared to confirm his Valencia departure, claiming he is leaving "home" to begin a "new era."

Cristhian Mosquera has confirmed that he will leave Valencia this summer, as he nears a move to Arsenal. The Spanish centre-back is set to make the switch to north London in a reported €15million, which could rise to just under €20million with add-ons.

Arsenal are working to complete a deal to sign Valencia centre-back Cristhian Mosquera. Personal terms are in place with the 21-year-old and the two clubs are close to reaching an agreement. The Athletic previously reported that the north London side were working on a deal to sign Mosquera with a defensive signing a priority this summer.
