Valencia youngster Yunus Musah has admitted it was ‘difficult’ for him to leave Arsenal for the Spanish side.
The winger left Arsenal’s U18 side on a free transfer to Valencia in August 2019, having spent all of his early career with the Gunners.
He’s since established himself in Valencia’s first-team, enjoying promotion from their B side and making 35 appearances in all competitions for them this season.
It’s been a quick rise for the 18-year-old, who Arsenal fans will now be worried could become the latest in a long line of talents to have left the club and established themselves elsewhere.
What the future holds remains to be seen, but Musah has admitted it was difficult for him to leave Arsenal in the rear-view mirror.
“I had very good years at Arsenal FC; I enjoyed it a lot,” he told COPE.
“I have great memories. But I made a decision to improve my career as a footballer.
“The decision was quick: they had a lot of interest in me, with very big players and history.
“The project that was offered to me made it a clear decision. I had to do it to help my future. It was difficult to leave Arsenal.”
