Deal close: Fabrizio Romano says Aston Villa now in talks to sign gem with “incredible engine”

FABRIZIO ROMANO claims Aston Villa is near signing a player in January.

Close of business: “Aston Villa is in talks to sign a gem with an incredible engine,” according to Fabrizio Romano.

According to a rumor, Aston Villa, who are soaring in the Premier League, may soon finalize an agreement to sign a gifted young jewel in the West Midlands.

The search for reinforcements by Aston Villa…
Aston Villa earned a crucial point away at Everton in a 0-0 draw to keep Unai Emery’s team two points off the top spot in their first Premier League match of the New Year. Still, the visiting team might be a little miffed that they weren’t able to take three points despite dominating the game late.

Naturally, in these circumstances, the January transfer window may present a chance to add one or two players who have the ability to drastically alter the course of the season, which might be advantageous given the Villans’ ongoing hopes of finishing in the top four.

Emile Smith-Rowe is finding first-team opportunities hard to come by at Arsenal and is still a target for the Villans, according to talkSPORT writer Alex Crook. Regarding the interest shown by Aston Villa, he said:

“I believe Aston Villa is still interested in Smith Rowe, so I’m excited to see what Arsenal does with him. Although Douglas Luiz is liked by Arsenal, Villa will not allow him to leave at this time as they are also vying for a spot in the top four.”

It’s also thought that Villa Park is interested in the sensational Danish player Roony Bardghji, who might cost up to £20 million to sign this year. The Sweden international is also wanted by Brentford, Newcastle United, and other teams in England and abroad. Emery may use him to offer another dimension to the final third of the pitch.

According to a source, transfer guru Fabrizio Romano has hinted that Aston Villa is getting close to acquiring a defender who has been on their radar for some time.
