Young Arsenal defender Julio Pleguezuelo has confirmed that he has offers to leave the club.
Speaking to Spanish outlet Marca, Pleguezuelo revealed that a number of clubs in La Liga are interested in signing him in what would presumably be a loan deal, although the report does not specify.
I’m waiting to see how everything happens, I have to talk to my representative. My goal is to stay at Arsenal, I would like to continue and, if it is not here, in England. I have offers in Spain, but at the moment it’s not my idea to go back.
Pleguezuelo is very highly rated at Arsenal and has been on the fringes of the first-team squad this season, with Unai Emery keen to bring through the next generation in London.
He featured for the Gunners in the Carabao Cup against Blackpool earlier this season and will be hoping that he can get some more game time under his belt going forward.
With Emery clearly willing to give younger players a chance, good performances may go a long way to securing his long-term future at the club.
With concerns over the fitness of Laurent Koscielny, the Gunners are expected to be in the need of a new central defender in the near future.
