Newly-promoted Arsenal sporting director Edu has entered the Gunners into the race to sign Las Palmas star Alberto Moleiro, according to reports. The 19-year-old has been heavily linked with moves to Barcelona and Manchester City lately as he continues to impress in the Spanish second division.
Moleiro, who sees his deal at the Estadio Gran Canaria expire in 2026, has featured 14 times for Garcia Pimienta's side in La Liga 2 this season, directly contributing towards three goals from midfield. The Spain youth international once lined up alongside Barcelona wonderkid Pedri in the Las Palmas youth ranks and he has been tipped to become a top playmaker, just like his former teammate.
"Pedri is a player who dictates the tempo of the game and ensures that possession is not lost," said former Las Palmas boss Pepe Mel. He handed both Pedri and Moleiro their senior debuts.
