La Liga
Valencia CF is facing a crucial stretch of the season with several issues to address, one of them being the future of Dimitri Foulquier. The French full-back, who returns to the squad this Friday against Sevilla after serving a suspension, does not have assurance of staying at Mestalla beyond June. Despite earning the trust of Carlos Corberán and performing well when most needed, his high salary is the main obstacle for a contract extension.
Currently, Foulquier earns close to two million euros per season, a figure the club is not willing to maintain, as reported by Cadena SER. The sports management is clear in its stance: renewal will only happen if the player accepts a substantial pay cut. At the moment, both sides have not engaged in negotiations, and according to sources close to the Valencia environment, the matter remains at a standstill.
Must accept the club's conditions to continue
The player, who arrived in 2021 from Granada for around three million euros, has been a reliable option at right-back, especially after the inconsistencies of Aarons and the physical issues of Thierry Correia. However, the club is prioritizing financial sustainability and believes his continuity makes sense only if it fits the new budget constraints.
In the event an agreement is not reached, Foulquier would leave the club for free this summer. His departure would also allow Valencia to maneuver in the market, where they are also awaiting potential offers for Mosquera or Yarek, key pieces for the team's future.
