Aston Villa join race for 20-year-old – €40m request ‘continues to rise’ and battle predicted

Aston Villa are now said to be one of the clubs in the race for Juventus youngster Matías Soulé.

The winger’s impressive loan spell at Frosione is drawing big attention, with the Italian media constantly wondering about his future.

Calcio Mercato are the latest to share a story on the player, claiming the fight for his signing has ‘just begun’.

Aston Villa are now named among the competitors who had been linked before, such as Southampton, Crystal Palace and Newcastle United. Even Al-Ittihad are said to be keen on his arrival.

It’s said the valuation for the 20-year-old is now at €40m, and it ‘continues to rise’ with his great form at Frosione. Since arriving at the club, he has ten goals and two assists in 24 appearances.

Juventus don’t seem very eager to hold him, with Calcio Mercato claiming the situation is ‘most likely come to a sale’. So we should soon see those Premier League clubs start bidding for him.

Aston Villa could be one of them, even though their interest seems fresher than the others. Eyes to the summer then, and what the Italian media believe will be a battle.
