Club ‘suspect’ Aston Villa will return for player in January – Now happy to sell him, have ‘had enough’ of him

During the summer, Aston Villa wanted to sign Marcos Acuña from Sevilla, and tried their hardest to get a deal done.

Mucho Deporte have a lengthy article on the Argentine’s situation at the La Liga side, which hasn’t been ideal this season.

They write the Aston Villa summer target is struggling at Sevilla, and the club ‘has had enough’ of the player, who is apparently ‘not easy to deal with’.

The good performances of Adriá Pedrosa since his arrival from Espanyol this summer means that the idea of an offer arriving ‘would be seen in a better light’ and there is a ‘desire to sell him in January’.

In fact, they ‘suspect’ that Aston Villa will return for him in the next transfer window, and with his contract ending in 2025, there is a decision that needs to be made: either renew his contract or sell him.

As things stand, the second is ‘closer than the first’, meaning that as long as there are suitors for him, he will go.

Sevilla certainly don’t want him sticking around and running down his contract, and his sale could help Victor Orta sort out a few things in the squad with the money from a transfer.

Now, they just need Aston Villa to come knocking.
