Moleiro broke into Las Palmas’ starting XI last season. He has made 22 appearances for the Segunda division club this term, providing five assists.

Real Madrid and Barcelona are expected to battle over the player’s signature in the near future. Aston Villa are also interested in the player. The Birmingham-based side’s manager, Unai Emery, is looking to use his experience in Spanish football to get the player’s signature.

Emery recently said (via Mirror):

The ex- Arsenal and Villareal boss added:

Moleiro is contracted with Las Palmas till 2026. Any interested club could get the player for €30 million, his release clause amount.

That could rise to €60 million if the Tenerife-based side qualify for La Liga next season. As Las Palmas are atop the Segunda division currently, chances are high that the team could play in La Liga next season.

Las Palmas manager Garcia Pimienta recently compared the Real Madrid target with Barcelona midfielder Pedri. He said:

Real Madrid and Barcelona in close La Liga title race

Real Madrid and Barcelona are involved in a close La Liga title race. Xavi’s side are atop the standings with 38 points from 15 games. Carlo Ancelotti’s Madrid have the same number of points but are behind on goal difference.

Real Madrid won 2-0 at Valladolid on December 31, while Barcelona were held to a 1-1 draw at home by Espanyol on the same day.
