Yunus Musah’s name has been in the news quite a bit this season and more often than not, it’s been about his next destination.
Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and Inter, among others, have been strongly linked with the Valencia midfielder, who seems destined to leave the Liga club this summer.
Lost among the hype and justified excitement over Musah’s potential is how he is actually playing with Valencia this season. And the answer appears to be: OK, not great!
It’s worth remembering, of course, that Musah is only 20 and in his first season as an every-game starter in La Liga. Interested teams aren’t just after the player he is, but the player he could one day become.
But right now, Musah and his club are going through a rough patch. The midfielder’s up-and-down campaign leads off the Five this week.
