A player with the temperament to be the worst villain in the English Premier League (EPL) will play for the EPL club for five more years.
Wolverhampton announced on its official website on the 1st (Korea Standard Time) that `Jerson Mosquera signed a new five-year contract with Wolverhampton.'
Wolverhampton is recovering from a long-term injury called Mosque, but will remain with the club until 2030. A one-year extension option is also included. This season he played five games for Wolverhampton, after which he was injured. 'The positive recovery is continuing, and we expect to return to training from pre-season.'"

Colombian centre-back Mosquera, born in 2001, left Atletico Nacional in 2021 and wore a Wolverhampton jersey. Wolverhampton, who brought in young Mosquera at the time, promoted growth with Cincinnati and Villarreal on loan, and Mosquera played in 18 games despite playing only the second half of the game at Villarreal. Based on his performance, he made his debut for the Colombian national team in October 2023.
Since this season, he has been playing as the starting center back for Wolverhampton. However, Mosquera, who debuted on the English Premier League (EPL) stage, was a villain himself.
He started the game against Arsenal, the first game of the season, and was seen strangling opponent Kai Havertz during the contest. He made a gesture that he didn't mean to, but fans didn't doubt Mosquera because both her hands and eyes were directed at Havertz. Since then, he has even raised eyebrows by touching Gabriel Jeju's buttocks with his fingers while tying his shoelaces. He even finished the game without being warned.
It wasn't the end. In the second round against Chelsea, Moises Caicedo intercepted the ball he lost during the second half, and in the process of pressing it again, he made an ungentlemanly tackle with the sole of his foot facing the opponent's ankle. At that time, several fans poured out criticism on the serious tackle.

However, his misbehavior could not last long. Mosquera suffered a cruciate ligament and lateral ligament rupture in a fifth round league match against Aston Villa, where his knee was broken in a collision with an opponent. The club immediately declared Mosquera's season out and had to promise the next season with his rehabilitation.
With the announcement of the renewal of the contract, Akdong Mosquera's performance will make EPL teams nervous next season. Attention is also focusing on whether Mosquera's misbehavior will continue after his return from injury.
Meanwhile, Wolverhampton, who has re-signed Mosquera, is in a position to worry about relegation along with a slump this season. Although the gap with Ipswich Town (17 points), which is ranked 17th in the league (26 points), is not narrow, it is not yet safe.
