Yerson Mosquera is a player in very high demand, with more than half the Championship apparently keen to sign the defender on loan from Wolves in January.
Mosquera has just finished up a loan spell with FC Cincinnati, which pathways manager Steve Davis recently described as ‘outstanding’.
Wolves now need to consider their next move for Mosquera.
It was reported by journalist Julian Capera that Wolves would prioritise finding a European club for the Colombia international if the feeling was that he was not ready for the first-team.
It’s also been suggested that Mosquera could be loaned to a Championship club next – and journalist Liam Keen has now made a fresh claim off the back of that…
Wolves defender Yerson Mosquera as huge interest from the Championship
On the latest episode of the E&S podcast, Mosquera came up in conversation.
The £4.5 million signing is viewed as a future first-teamer by the club, and the talk was about whether he could perhaps come in now and do a job.
Keen has said that Mosquera is definitely not short of interest should Wolves wish to send him out on loan again.
He said: “The making of him will be his next loan. Which is more likely than not, because he’s set to come back and O’Neil is going to have a look at him and see if he thinks that he can push and play in the first-team.
“But it’s been worded to me as more than half of the Championship clubs have enquired about him. So there is a lot of interest in the Championship. Wolves have pretty much got their pick of the teams, and they can pick the loan that is going to suit him in terms of game time and style.”
Mosquera to the Championship is logical
Unless Mosquera is ready for Premier League football now, which feels unlikely, then a Championship loan would be a very logical next step for Mosquera.
£4.5 million signing Mosquera was brilliant in the MLS but he now needs a real step up for his next move.
The Championship is a very tough league, and the style of football will be a lot more comparable to the Premier League than the MLS.
Wolves have had real success with sending younger players to Championship clubs in recent times, so it makes sense to send Mosquera there too.
