Aston Villa have been linked with a move for 26-year-old Argentine international defender Gonzalo Montiel this summer.
A report from Fichajes has claimed that Aston Villa are currently locked in talks to sign 26-year-old World Cup-winning defender Gonzalo Montiel this summer.
Montiel has been a key player for his club and country, helping Argentina win the World Cup and Sevilla the UEFA Europa League recently. The 26-year-old right-back has emerged as a viable target for Aston Villa as well.
The Premier League club will be hoping to do well in Europe next season, and they need top-class players at their disposal. Montiel has shown that he is capable of performing consistently at a high level, and he should prove to be a quality addition. It will be interesting to see if Unai Emery can get a deal done in the coming weeks.
Aston Villa sporting director Monchi has close ties with Sevilla from his time there, and he could play a key role in the transfer. Sevilla are reportedly open to letting the player leave if a good offer is presented. The West Midlands club certainly have the financial resources to pay a substantial amount of money for the defender and it will be interesting to see how the situation develops.
Aston Villa have done well in the transfer window so far and they have brought in quality players like Pau Torres, Moussa Diaby and Youri Tielemans. Signing a quality full-back will only help them improve further and build on their performances from last season.
Aston Villa have shown tremendous improvement under Unai Emery, and they will look to push for UEFA Champions League qualification in the coming seasons and do well in the domestic trophies as well. These signings will certainly elevate their quality in the upcoming season.
