Aston Villa is on the verge of securing a new talent, with Colombian defender Yeimar Mosquera set to join the Premier League club from Orsomarso SC. According to Colombian journalist Pipe Sierra, the final details of the deal have been sorted, and Mosquera is expected to arrive in Birmingham shortly to complete his medical tests.
Mosquera’s Move to Aston Villa
The 19-year-old center-back will reportedly sign a four-year contract with Aston Villa after successfully passing his medical examination. While the transfer fee remains undisclosed, it’s known that Orsomarso SC will retain 30% of any future transfer fee should Mosquera be sold by Aston Villa.
Mosquera’s journey to Villa Park marks a significant step in his young career, following a stint at Sócrates Valencia. Reports suggest that the Spanish side, which previously developed the player, will also receive a share of the transfer proceeds.
Unai Emery’s Plans for Mosquera
Despite the excitement surrounding Mosquera’s potential, it appears that Aston Villa manager Unai Emery does not plan to integrate the Colombian U20 international into the first team immediately. Instead, the defender is expected to be sent on loan to Real Unión, a Spanish lower division club partially owned by the Emery family. This move will allow Mosquera to gain valuable experience in European football before potentially breaking into Aston Villa’s senior squad.
Mosquera’s Rising Profile
Mosquera has impressed with his performances in Colombia, making 20 appearances across all competitions for Orsomarso SC this year. His potential has caught the eye of Aston Villa’s scouting team, and the club’s willingness to invest in his development reflects their long-term vision.
Conclusion
As Yeimar Mosquera prepares to make the leap from Colombia’s second division to the Premier League, Aston Villa fans will be eager to see how the young defender develops. With a loan move to Real Unión likely, Mosquera will have the opportunity to adapt to European football and grow as a player, with the potential to make a significant impact at Villa Park in the future.
