Aston Villa Are Among The Clubs Hoping To Land This Real Madrid Winger: Right Fit For Emery?

Aston Villa are among the clubs hoping to land Real Madrid winger Brahim Diaz as they are eager to strengthen their squad this January.

in a report, Defensa Central mentioned that Aston Villa are among the clubs hoping to land Real Madrid winger Brahim Diaz. It has been claimed that the Villans could face competition in the form of West Ham United and AC Milan in pursuit of the Spanish playmaker this winter.

Diaz’s Recent Form At The Santiago Bernabeu Stadium
Diaz is experiencing an up-and-down campaign at the Madrid club but deserves credit for producing a few impressive performances for them in the final third. The Spaniard has been involved in 17 matches for Los Blancos this season, finding the back of the net on four occasions and securing a couple of assists in various competitions

The 24-year-old has proven his worth at times in the opposition half by averaging 1.0 shots, 0.5 key passes and 1.4 dribbles per 90 minutes in La Liga. He has even been excellent when interchanging possession with his teammates based on his pass completion rate of 85.7% in the Spanish first division (stats via whoscored).

Diaz is under contract at the Spanish club until the summer of 2027. Therefore, Aston Villa will have to make a convincing offer if they want to win the race to sign the Real Madrid talent this winter.

Diaz is a good dribbler with the ball at his feet and can engineer a few inviting chances for his teammates in the attacking end of the pitch. He can shoot the ball with power and precision from long range. The Spanish sensation mainly functions as a winger but can also play as an attacking midfielder if told to do so.

Diaz would undeniably bolster the quality of Aston Villa boss Unai Emery’s match-day squad. He has what it takes to nail down a regular starting spot at Villa Park. The Spaniard might even help the Villans push for a top-four finish in the Premier League this season.

At 24, Diaz will only improve as he matures as a footballer in the coming years. Hence, he would be a great fit for Aston Villa‘s needs in the long run. Diaz already knows the Premier League well from his time at Manchester City and won’t take much time to settle into life at the West Midlands club.
