Aston Villa are reportedly interested in signing the Besiktas attacker Semih Kilicsoy during the January transfer window.
According to a report via TeamTalk, the West Midlands club are now closing in on the 18-year-old as their first January signing. The player is highly rated in Turkish football and he has a bright future ahead of him. He has been identified as a target for the Premier League club by the Aston Villa sporting director Monchi, who is now putting plants in place to get the deal done.
The Besiktas talent is expected to develop into a top-class player in the near future and he could prove to be a solid long-term investment for the West Midlands club. The 18-year-old has already established himself as a first-team player for the Black Eagles and it remains to be seen whether Aston Villa can agree on a fee with his club.
Apparently, the Turkish giants value the player at €15 million and a club with Aston Villa’s resources should be able to afford him without any problems. The Premier League side are hoping to put together a formidable squad for the future and signing elite young talents like Kilicsoy should prove to be a wise decision.
The youngster could develop into a key player for Aston Villa with coaching and experience. Working under a top-class coach like Unai Emery will be an attractive proposition for him and the youngster will be tempted to join the Premier League club if there is a concrete proposal on the table.
Aston Villa are currently competing in the UEFA Europa Conference league and they will be hoping to push for Champions League qualification this season. They have shown tremendous improvement under their new manager and players like Kilicsoy will certainly be attracted to the idea of playing for them.
The 18-year-old needs ample first-team action in order to continue his development and it will be interesting to see if he seeks gametime assurance before moving to the Premier League club. Aston Villa must look to give him ample opportunities to showcase his qualities or it could affect his development negatively.
