Apparently Musah was offered a scholarship deal that would have been the gateway to him signing profes🔯sional terms at the age of 17.

But it would appear that has been rejected, the starlet in ꦇ🌜a Valencia shirt playing against Dutch side RKC Waalkwijk in a pre-season friendly.

Neither club have made any kind o🔯f of🔯ficial announcement about the move.

It is thought that Valenci🎃a were able to offer a clearer path to their first-team than Arsenal were to their own.

TBR’s view

It’s a big blow for Arsenal if Musah has 🉐indeed left the club as it so seems.

He was viewed as the standout prospect of the 2002/03 generation in Arsenal’s Academy, and was playing above his own age group with the U18s last seas🔯on.

The versatile midfielder is supremely gifted technically, and would likely have been one for the Gunners’ first-♏tea🧔m in the future.

The club have many tale♏nted young players on their books, but maybe Musah will proꦅve to be a big regret later down the line.
