Levante have reportedly turned down a €30 million bid from a surprise club for Etta Eyong, as Barcelona and Chelsea monitor the situation closely.

The 22-year-old has taken La Liga by storm, scoring five goals and providing a single assist in his opening nine league games.

As a result, the likes of Chelsea and Barcelona are closely monitoring Eyong’s progress and have been touted to make moves in January.

They aren’t the only clubs interested, however, with Marca reporting that Levante have turned a €30 million offer from CSKA Moscow for the striker down.

It’s understood that Eyong has absolutely no interest in a move to Russia, despite a lucrative salary proposal.
