Unai Emery loves midfield options, and while #AVFC always work to meet his demands, adding them before pre-season would be a major plus. If one João is followed by another, Villa would have a nice blend and depth despite Tielemans' exit and Onana's injury. https://www.birmingham

Tottenham & Aston Villa are among the clubs interested in signing Barcelona forward Ferran Torres this summer. Atletico Madrid are currently leading the race. Barcelona are prepared to sell Torres for around €35M as he enters the final year of his contract. @caughtoffside
