Deportivo La Coruna will demand €20 million to part ways with 22-year-old emerging Spanish winger Yeremay Hernandez, a target for Chelsea and Newcastle United.
According to a report by Spanish outlet AS, Yeremay Hernandez is growing in popularity in the market. Chelsea and Newcastle United are among the prospective suitors vying for the signature of the emerging Deportivo La Coruna winger. The Spanish club will point to the release clause of €20 million to part ways with the 22-year-old prospect.
Who is Yeremay Hernandez?
Yeremay Hernandez is the latest highly-rated prospect to rise in prominence in his homeland. A native of Las Palmas, the Spaniard began his youth career at Almenara before spending a few years with UD Las Palmas and Real Madrid. However, he has grown in stature during his spell with Deportivo La Coruna.
The 22-year-old winger has gone from strength to strength since joining Deportivo La Coruna in July 2022. The young attacking prospect has been excellent thus far this season, amassing eight goals and three assists in 18 La Liga 2 appearances.
Meanwhile, the youngster’s progress has not gone unnoticed, capturing the attention of several high-profile clubs across Europe. Premier League bigwigs, in particular, are keen on signing the emerging Spanish winger, with Chelsea and Newcastle United among his prospective suitors.
Premier League move on the horizon?
Chelsea’s interest in Yeremay Hernandez is understandable. Mykhailo Mudryk faces an uncertain future at the West London outfit after recently failing a doping test. So, several wide attackers have emerged on Chelsea’s radar, with the club keen on reinforcing the offensive unit this month. However, the Deportivo La Coruna prospect is also a viable target.
As for Newcastle United, Miguel Almiron faces an uncertain future at St. James’ Park, with the two parties ready to part ways in the winter transfer window. So, the 22-year-old Spaniard is an option worth considering for Newcastle United. Meanwhile, Deportivo La Coruna will demand €20 million to sell the youngster, pointing to his release clause to offload him.
While the emerging Spanish winger is an untested prospect, he can justify an outlay of €20 million. However, it will be interesting to see if Chelsea and Newcastle United are ready to meet Deportivo La Coruna’s asking price in the coming weeks.
