Arsenal and Barcelona are keen on Jhon Duran ahead of future windows despite the Colombian only signing a new deal at Aston Villa.
According to AS Colombia, Barcelona and Arsenal are set to approach Jhon Duran ahead of future windows. Aston Villa might have secured him a new deal recently, but that does not stop speculation from pitching the idea of a move sooner rather than later, especially if he continues to sit on the bench for prolonged periods.
Jhon Duran has come to the fore for Aston Villa, with some crucial goals that has propelled the club to new heights domestically and in Europe. However, most of his goals have come off the bench, which has garnered him a reputation for being the best impact player around.
The problem is that Unai Emery takes this reputation far more seriously, keeping him as a bench player despite his goalscoring cameos. At the moment, his future seems secure at Villa following a renewal that extends his agreement until 2030. But that does not mean he cannot leave the club, which remains the case.
Barcelona tried an approach before his renewal, and the Blaugrana remain in the mix to sign the striker in future windows. The growing links to the Spanish giants could indicate that the interest might be serious, as the report names them as well as Arsenal as the big contenders who have enquired about the Colombian, for whom Aston Villa could demand €90 million.
With that price point, it does feel like some Premier League sides like West Ham United or Chelsea may have missed a massive opportunity to sign the €90 million-rated Aston Villa star for half the price during the summer. In his current form, the Villans are well-placed to make a massive profit from his sale.
Arsenal are keen on Duran
Arsenal are in the mix for a new striker, as reports suggest they could sell Gabriel Jesus next summer. The Brazilian has lost his place, and the loss to Bournemouth showed that Mikel Arteta might have lost faith in him. The manager did not start him despite missing a host of his main attackers.
Duran was a player of interest to Arsenal, and the North Londoners might enter the chase if the conditions are right. Barcelona, for their part, may have to sort their finances out before even thinking about spending that much on Duran, which could boost Arsenal’s hopes in the chase.
