Despite half of Brazil being linked with a move for Aston Villa’s Wesley Moraes, the latest trend is that Internacional will be the lucky winners.

Having already played for both the Villans and Club Brugge this season, the Brazilian needed to find himself a club outside of Europe, which is why a return to his home country, albeit temporary, made sense.

It would give him regular football, allowing him to regain some fitness and form, all the while allowing Aston Villa to monitor his progress ahead of next season.

Over the past few days, it’s Internacional who have taken the lead, and Correio do Povo now claim the Brazilian side are ‘hoping to announce’ two signings, including the Villa striker, ‘in the next few days’.

The second is Marinho from Santos, with the two names ‘close’ to CT Parque Gigante.

The idea of Wesley is ’to bring him on a loan agreement of at least one year’, but it’s also pointed out that ‘other clubs also compete for the centre-forward’.
