WILLY KAMBWALA has transferred from Manchester United to Villarreal.
Willy Kambwala has joined Villarreal
He made his first team debut against West Ham in 2023
The Spanish club has acquired the defender for an estimated sum of £10 million.
Last season, Kambwala, who is 19 years old, was promoted to the Red Devils’ first team and appeared in 10 matches.
According to The Daily Mail, Manchester United will include a buy-back clause in his contract with Villarreal.
The clause will continue to be in effect for the subsequent three years, until 2027.
Additionally, it is asserted that Villarreal has a substantial sell-on clause in the event that Kambwala departs the club.
He has entered into an agreement with the eastern Spain team that will extend until 2029.
The publication has disclosed that the LaLiga team has acquired the defender for a mere £4.7m.
This implies that the remaining portion of the charge will be compensated for through add-ons.
The transfer was verified by Man United, who expressed their gratitude to the youngster.
The following was stated: “Willy leaves with the sincere thanks of everyone at Manchester United, and our very best wishes for the next chapter of his career.”
In December 2023, Kambwala made his professional debut for the Red Devils, playing alongside Jonny Evans.
Jarrod Bowen and Mohammed Kudus secured the victory for the hosts that resulted in a defeat for West Ham in the away match.
He also played a role in the FA Cup’s quarter-final victory over Liverpool.
