FC Midtjylland’s Dario Osorio is attracting the interest of Premier League trio Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Crystal Palace.
According to Graeme Bailey on TBR Football, FC Midtjylland star Dario Osorio has a massive following from Premier League clubs, and a January move could be on the cards. Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Crystal Palace are among those looking closely at the 20-year-old South American whizkid, while there are also a few big hitters on the trails.
Dario Osorio has not had the most productive season with FC Midtjylland in Denmark so far, but he has the minerals to become an exciting talent in the future. The 20-year-old South American whizkid is already likened to Argentine great Angel Di Maria, which speaks volumes of how highly he is rated at the moment.
Naturally, a few clubs are queueing up for his signature ahead of the January transfer window, as this is a period when some Premier League sides could get their hands on the exciting talent without any fuss. The complication comes in the form of choices, as Osorio will have a long list to choose from.
Tottenham are keeping close tabs on the winger, while Newcastle United, Aston Villa, and Crystal Palace are also keen. The trio are mentioned as top suitors as things stand, and one of those would be ideal for Osorio’s immediate future, as he could expect semi-regular game time there compared to some of the big hitters, including Spurs.
Liverpool reportedly failed with a summer bid, while Manchester United are also keen, meaning Osirio does not have a shortage of suitors going forward. However, the winger will choose his next club based on where he plays regularly and how this transfer will impact his development.
Trio considered front-runners for Osorio
Aston Villa, Newcastle United, and Crystal Palace may not have the aura of some Premier League heavyweights like Manchester United, Liverpool, or even Tottenham. Still, the trio will provide a player like Osorio with a platform for his future. These clubs are eager to develop top talent from around the world into big stars for the future, something that will suit the 20-year-old South American whizkid.
Hence, there could be a scramble between Aston Villa, Crystal Palace, and Newcastle United in the upcoming January transfer window for the winger. Much will depend on how much FC Midtjylland will demand the in-demand attacker. However, he would be a comparatively cheap purchase, considering where he is coming from in the hierarchy of European football leagues.
