Carlos Espí, a 21-year-old forward for Levante, is very close to defining his future in this summer transfer market. In the last few hours, Villarreal has taken the lead to acquire the attacker and is considering executing his release clause of 25 million euros, while Levante expects the operation to be resolved within a maximum period of 48 hours.

The Valencia-based team is keeping the player separate from group training to avoid any physical setbacks that could jeopardize a significant economic sale. Although there are clubs in the Premier League monitoring the situation, Villarreal's sporting project has weighed heavily in the player's decision.

Villarreal Moves Quickly for Carlos Espí

Villarreal has intensified contacts in the last few hours and has positioned itself as the top candidate to sign Carlos Espí. The opportunity to compete in the Champions League and stay in LaLiga aligns with the forward's roadmap, who would face the first major transfer of his career.

Levante maintains a strong stance in the negotiation. The club has no intention of lowering the 25 million euros release clause, an amount it considers appropriate given the player's growth and importance in the team's survival last season.

The sports management also aims to respect the player's preferences as long as the offer meets the club's conditions. This balance between economic interest and the forward's will is facilitating progress in the final details of the operation.

The Premier Still Interested in Carlos Espí

Premier League interest remains strong. Several English clubs have been following Carlos Espí's progress over the last few months and have the financial capacity to meet the release clause, although so far no definitive offer has surpassed Villarreal's position.

In addition to the English market, Serie A teams have also made moves for the forward this summer. However, some parallel operations have reduced direct competition and reinforced the candidacy of the Castellon-based team.

The Numbers Behind the Interest in Carlos Espí

Carlos Espí enters this market after a season of growth with Levante. The forward scored 11 goals in 25 LaLiga matches and is under contract until 2028. His market value is around 2.8 million euros, although the club's set release clause is 25 million euros, a difference that reflects Levante's commitment to protecting one of its main assets.

The club's decision to keep him away from group training sessions precisely reflects the importance of a potential sale. The forward was also excluded from the last preseason friendlies to minimize any risks before his future is resolved.

With Villarreal in the lead and the Premier League awaiting any developments, the next 48 hours are crucial. If the yellow team executes the clause or reaches a definitive agreement with Levante, Carlos Espí will put an end to his time in Orriols and leap to a project with presence in the elite European competition.
