Spanish La Liga club Rayo Vallecano have entered into contract extension talks with centre-back Abdul Mumin in a bid to retain the Ghana international and fend off interest from other clubs in the upcoming transfer window.

With only one season remaining on Mumin's current contract, Rayo Vallecano is eager to move quickly to secure the 26-year-old for a further three years until June 2029.

According to sources close to the Ghanaian player's entourage, the Spanish club has made an offer with improved terms, recognizing Mumin as a key figure in their defensive setup for the coming seasons.

Rayo Vallecano views the Ghanaian international as a crucial player around which to build their defense and intends to prevent him from entering the final year of his contract without an extension.

Discussions over Mumin's future are expected to continue in the coming weeks, and the outcome could play a crucial role in shaping the Spanish club's defensive strategy for next season.
