Aston Villa, in the midst of their impressive campaign, are reportedly interested in a teenage sensation, which could improve their prospects of a strong finish in the Premier League, according to a report.
Aston Villa are experiencing a prevailing sense of positivity as they maintain consistent form in the Premier League under Unai Emery. The Spanish coach aims to maintain this momentum by bringing in additional reinforcements during the January transfer window.
Football Transfers reports that Aston Villa are actively looking for flank options in the current transfer window. The club are said to have approached Galatasaray’s Wilfried Zaha and Lazio’s Brazilian star Felipe Anderson.
According to the outlet, Emery is a big admirer of Wilfried Zaha and tried to take him to the Emirates Stadium in 2018 when he was managing Arsenal. However, the Ivory Coast international is reported to be happy in Turkey and is not expected to make any moves this month.
Roma playmaker Paulo Dybala is currently a prominent figure in European football discussions due to his low release clause of approximately €13m (£11.2m), which expires on January 15. Reports from Italy, via Birmingham Live, suggest that Aston Villa have entered into talks with Dybala’s entourage over a possible move to Villa Park.
Additionally, the Villans are reportedly willing to spend £20million on attractive prospect Roony Bardghji, according to HITC.
