Aston Villa may have advantage for free signing – Rival ‘aware of interest’ from Emery’s side.
Aston Villa has emerged as a candidate to recruit Atlético Madrid’s Mario Hermoso in the upcoming transfer window.
The defender’s contract ends in the summer, and his future after this season is uncertain. This appears to have made him interesting to other clubs, like Villans and Juventus.
According to Tutto Mercato Web, the Serie A club has expressed interest in Aston Villa.
According to the report, the centre-back is comfortable playing in a three-man defence or a back four, and he can also play as a left-back. He is ‘physically strong, good in the air, and possesses good basic technique’.
The extension negotiations with the La Liga club have not gone well so far, allowing Juve, Aston Villa, and others to see a chance.
According to reports, the Old Lady is ‘aware of interest’ from Aston Villa and other teams and is attempting to determine whether or not they may engage into discussions in order to get an advantage in the transfer market.
Hermoso earns €4 million net every year, and TMW believes this could be an issue for Juventus. This may not be an issue for Aston Villa, giving them an advantage in signing him on a free transfer following the season.
Unai Emery and Aston Villa director Monchi may be familiar with their compatriot from their La Liga days.
Hermoso has two goals and one assist in 32 games for Atlético this season.
