Girona in no rush to sell Arnau Martínez to Valencia, started and captained against Sabadell | OneFootball

Girona are in no rush to sell Arnau Martínez to Valencia. The right-back started and wore the armband in Friday’s friendly against Sabadell. According to Superdeporte, negotiations remain distant and look set to be lengthy and difficult.

Differences over valuation and the structure of any transfer continue to keep the clubs apart. Valencia are not the only suitor. Girona are waiting for offers expected from European teams in the coming days.

For now, Arnau remains central at the club. His place in the starting XI underlines there is no urgency to sell and that a deal is still distant.

After receiving the green light from Singapore to invest in a long-standing weakness at right-back, Valencia have moved for the Catalan full-back.

A Spain youth international, he has been among LaLiga’s best right-backs in recent seasons despite the Catalan club’s relegation. He offers balance, reliable defending, intelligence in attack and composure on the ball, with notable leadership at 23.
