Until this morning, the transfer of Roque Mesa to Swansea City sounded very close to being done. Both Canarias 7 and Marca said the agreement was made, and the payment method was the only thing lacking for the transfer to be made official.
But some news from Estádio Deportivo caught our attention today. They are reporting that among the UD Las Palmas squad that is expected to have routine medicals ahead of preseason, Roque Mesa is included on the list.
Estádio Deportivo mentions the interest from Swansea City, but doesn’t give any updates on the situation, and makes the story sound like Mesa is expected to start preseason at Las Palmas.
This is official information from the club, meanwhile, the other outlets seem to stick to their previous information.
Are Las Palmas expecting Roque Mesa to stay and is Swansea off? That would be quite a plot twist, and it sounds more like they don’t want to announce the departure so early.
