Etta Eyong, the young Cameroonian forward, has been impressive in the pre-season, earning the top scorer title for Villarreal. Initially, it seemed he would be loaned out to gain more playing time, but his performance has convinced the coach, Marcelino, that he can be a valuable player for the team this season. Despite the club still searching for another forward in the market, Etta might secure a spot in Villarreal's attacking lineup. He has a contract until 2027, and the club may look to extend it further to secure his future and potential sale value.
