OFFICIAL STATEMENT | ARNAUT DANJUMA

Valencia CF have reached an agreement with Villarreal CF for the signing of Arnaut Danjuma.

The 28-year-old Dutch forward (31/01/1997) strengthens Valencia’s attacking line and joins the Camp de Mestalla on a three-season contract, until June 2028.

Danjuma will bring Valencia CF speed, flair, goal-scoring ability, and versatility, able to create danger from various positions across the front line.

Born in Lagos (Nigeria) and developed in the youth ranks of PSV Eindhoven, he made his top-flight debut with NEC Nijmegen in the Eredivisie before going on to play for Club Brugge KV and AFC Bournemouth.

In 2021, he signed for Villarreal CF, where he scored 24 goals across LaLiga, the UEFA Champions League, and the Copa del Rey. He later returned to the Premier League to play for Tottenham Hotspur FC and Everton FC, before his most recent spell this past season with Girona FC.

The new Valencia signing is now available to our head coach, Carlos Corberán, and ready to start working with his new teammates ahead of the start of the competition.
