Intense race

In our opinion, the race to sign Alberto Moleiro from Las Palmas in the January transfer window will be intense, with Aston Villa, Arsenal, Liverpool and Real Madrid all interested in him.

The playmaker has been likened to Barcelona and Spain star Pedri.

It shows just how highly the 19-year-old is.

Las Palmas are aiming to win promotion to La Liga at the end of the season, and they may want a hefty transfer fee to sell one of their best players.

Moleiro made his breakthrough last season and played 38 times in all competitions.

The attacking midfielder has created 29 chances in open play so far this season.

Arsenal, Liverpool and Real Madrid all are massive clubs and global brands, and it will be interesting to see if Villa are able to beat them to Moleiro’s signature.
