Marcelo Flores, the promising Arsenal youngster, had a disappointing loan stint at Oviedo in Spain. Despite participating in all competitions, he was only able to make 15 appearances and had limited starts.
Reports from Kery News via La Media Titular indicate that Oviedo has no plans of retaining him beyond the current campaign.
Flores is set to return to Arsenal to assess his future options. Despite a lacklustre loan spell, Arsenal have recently extended his contract until 2025, signaling the club’s continued faith in his potential. The club has expressed its intention to seek out another loan opportunity for him instead of exploring the possibility of a permanent sale.
Despite the absence of any circulating rumours regarding potential suitors, sources close to the matter suggest that Flores is likely to secure a loan to another team for the upcoming season. It has been confirmed that Mexico is not on his itinerary.
Following his departure from his previous team, Flores is now faced with the task of evaluating his alternatives and identifying a fitting location where he can further his growth as a player and acquire additional minutes on the pitch.
It is expected that Arsenal will delve into loan options for him in order to facilitate his growth and optimise his potential in the upcoming years.
