Valencia Club de Fútbol seeks future with Danjuma
Arnaut Danjuma has strengthened his chances of remaining at Valencia Club de Fútbol with three goals in two friendly matches. The player wants to stay, although his future will depend on Carlos Corberán's decision before the 3rd of September.
What does this mean for the club's future?
Danjuma's performance in England has led Carlos Corberán to reconsider the role designated for him. Before the training camp, his departure was among the operations the club might consider to free up a spot and create salary cap space.
What comes next?
The next test will be the Trofeo Taronja against Newcastle, scheduled for the 8th of August at Mestalla. This match will determine if Corberán keeps Danjuma as a forward and if his three goals lead to more playing time in the starting lineup.
What does it mean for Valencia CF?
Last season, Danjuma played in 26 LaLiga matches, 18 of them as a starter, and scored three goals and two assists. His contract with Valencia CF remains until the 30th of June 2028.
What does Danjuma say?
In an interview, Danjuma expressed his intention to stay in the club and his willingness to play in any position that the coach requires. "Rumors about my future? I'm focused on Valencia. Playing as a forward gives me more space and allows me to run more", he said.
