Aston Villa managed to fulfill the dream they had at the start of the season, which was to qualify for European competitions. They have finished in a creditable seventh position in the Premier League, so they will be able to play in the Conference League, something that has a special merit, considering that they have finished ahead of other clubs with a much larger budget, such as Tottenham Hotspur. , Chelsea or West Ham United.
Unai Emery has done a fantastic job since he landed with the course already started, after leaving Villarreal. And he is already thinking about planning the squad, as he expects important changes to take place, and new star signings to arrive. One of the first objectives that has been set is the hiring of Marco Asensiowhom he considers a fantastic reinforcement for the offensive plot, and who can also land totally free.
His contract with Real Madrid ends in a month, and despite Florentino Pérez’s attempts to retain him, the talks have finally broken down. They have not been able to reach an agreement to broaden the link they have, due to the economic differences that exist between both parties. In addition, the Spaniard demanded a much more leading role, something that Carlo Ancelotti cannot promise him, due to the competition that exists in his demarcation.
Vinicius Junior, Rodrygo Goes or Fede Valverde close the doors on the former RCD Mallorca and RCD Espanyol player, who has made the decision to say goodbye to the Santiago Bernabéu eight years after his signing. He has never been able to exploit all the potential that was seen when he broke into the elite, due to injuries, butBut still and so it has been a very important piece due to its ease of seeing the goaland for the sensational ball hitting he has.
Asensio is looking for an ambitious project that seduces him enough, and where he can be a regular in the lineups, and from Villa Park they can promise him that.
Asensio, closer than ever to England
After being linked to teams like Liverpool, Arsenal or Newcastle United in the past, Asensio can finally end up playing in England, although in the ranks of Aston Villa. There he hopes to make merits to convince Luis de la Fuente, and continue to be a regular in the calls for ‘la Roja’, as he was for Luis Enrique in his last months.
Emery is convinced that it will have a big impact.
