Aston Villa completed the signing of Pau Torres from Villarreal earlier this month.
The Villans are again looking at La Liga to further bolster their defence as they set their sights on Levante UD’s Marc Pubill.
That’s according to Deportes COPE Valencia, who say Aston Villa are ‘in talks’ with the Spanish club over a deal for the right-back.
It’s said the next few hours are ‘decisive’ for Unai Emery’s side to ‘transfer a formal offer’ for the 20-year-old. Details of the planned Aston Villa offer or Levante’s demands aren’t mentioned in the tweet.
The Premier League side aren’t the only club chasing the fullback. Online, COPE state Sevilla are interested in the player and are thinking of signing him.
Pubill scored two goals and registered an assist from 31 games last season. He has a deal lasting until 2026 and the report states the Spanish club value him at around €6m. This is unlikely to be an issue for Emery’s side.
