Scouting Report & Player Insights
Arnaut Danjuma is a pacy, left-footed inverted winger who likes to cut in from the left flank and shoot or drive at defenders in one-on-one situations. He built his reputation with a prolific season at Villarreal before spells at Everton and Tottenham on loan, and now plies his trade at Valencia in LaLiga. Injuries have interrupted his momentum in recent years, but he retains the explosiveness and finishing instinct that once made him one of the Eredivisie and LaLiga's most dangerous wide forwards. His game is built around directness rather than intricate combination play.
Scored prolifically for Villarreal in the 2021-22 season, drawing interest from several Premier League clubs.
Dutch international who has represented the Netherlands at senior level.
Has had loan spells in the Premier League with Everton and Tottenham Hotspur.
