"According to a report from SPORT, it has come to light that Levante forward Etta Eyong continues to favour a move to Barcelona, even as Real Madrid have entered the race for his signature. The 22-year-old striker has become one of the most sought-after young talents in Spanish football, and his performances have not gone unnoticed. In recent weeks, Real Madrid have joined the bidding, with the club's director of football, Santiago Solari, personally recommending his signing."
"Interestingly, despite Madrid's growing interest, Eyong's stance remains unchanged. He is determined to wait for Barcelona, as the club he has long considered his ideal destination. It must be remembered that he expressed his desire to join the Catalan side during the summer window, but the move could not materialise at the time. Still, Eyong is said to be willing to wait until 2026 for another opportunity to wear the Blaugrana colours."
"Levante are preparing for his inevitable departure next year. They are expected to accept any offer of around €15 million, although his release clause stands at €30 million. Meanwhile, Villarreal, who hold the right of first refusal, are unlikely to re-sign the forward, as Eyong has no intention of returning. Barcelona, for their part, had maintained contact with Eyong's camp during the closing stages of the August transfer window."
Etta Eyong, a 22-year-old Levante forward, strongly prefers a transfer to Barcelona and is prepared to wait until 2026 for that opportunity. Real Madrid have entered the transfer race, with director of football Santiago Solari recommending his signing and monitoring his development as a future attacking option. Levante expect to accept offers around €15 million next year despite a €30 million release clause. Villarreal hold first-refusal rights but are unlikely to re-sign him. Barcelona previously contacted his camp but withdrew when Villarreal demanded a €10 million release clause; Barcelona view his value as reasonable and consider him a priority if they pursue a striker.
