Valencia has officially closed the signing of Arnaut Danjuma from Villarreal, in an operation that, as reported by the newspaper AS, will be based on variables linked to the player's performance during the 2025/26 season.
The Dutch winger, who was under contract with the yellow submarine until 2026, will thus end his time at La Cerámica to join Carlos Corberán's project, becoming the sixth reinforcement of the club this summer.
The negotiation was not easy. At Villarreal, they were not satisfied with a simple loan, as they would not benefit economically from the player towards the end of his contract. However, with this agreement based on objectives and performance, the yellow club sees an opportunity to profit if Danjuma shines in the white-and-black jersey. This formula has unlocked the operation and satisfied both parties.
The new Valencia CF attacker has already been seen this morning at the Paterna facilities, where he has completed the initial procedures for his incorporation. The signing is completely sealed, and he is expected to be officially presented in the coming days. The player arrives with the challenge of providing speed, goals, and flair to a team that aims to take a quality leap in La Liga.

Danjuma is Valencia's sixth signing
With the arrival of Arnaut Danjuma, Valencia's Mestalla team now has six additions in this summer market. Before him, Julen Aguirrezabala, Copete, Dani Raba, Baptiste Santamaria, and Filip Ugrinic had joined the squad. The sports management, led by Miguel Ángel Corona, continues working to complete a competitive squad that will allow the team to compete for European positions.
Danjuma, 28 years old, has had stints at clubs like Bournemouth in the Premier League and has experienced European competitions. His best form was seen in the 2021/22 season with Villarreal, where he played a key role in the team's historic qualification for the Champions League semifinals. Now, the Dutch international will seek to rediscover that level and become a key piece in Corberán's scheme.

Valencia trusts that Danjuma's signing will not only bring footballing quality but also an impulse in terms of excitement for the fans. Mestalla hopes to experience the excitement of a competitive team again, with players capable of deciding matches. The winger arrives with the motivation to demonstrate his worth and earn a significant place in the 2025/26 season.
In conclusion, the operation represents a strategic move for both Valencia CF and Villarreal. Valencia strengthens its attack with a reliable player, while the yellow club ensures an economic compensation linked to performance. Everything is set for Arnaut Danjuma to wear white and black and start a new chapter in his career.
