Aston Villa closing in on signing of Pau Torres for less than his release clause AVFC
Torres and Emery know each other wellThe pair won the Europa League together in 2021 when the Spanish club beat United in the final on penalties.
Villa have lofty ambitions of breaking into the top six and had an excellent end to the season under Emery, who took over from Steven Gerrard in October 2022.But that was quite the turnaround considering that relegation fears were present during the final days of Gerrard's reign. And the club's mega-rich owners are prepared to bankroll Emery to make sure they stick around in the top half of the table.The defensive midfielder missed a chunk of Leeds' season through injury while the Whites were relegated to the Championship.Laura Woods emerges from Glastonbury and jokes wardrobe malfunction was narrowly averted
New president of football operations Monchi has strong links with Spain having spent a long time with Sevilla. And Torres could be just one of several exports from La Liga while audacious bids for Juventus pair Dusan Vlahovic and Federico Chiesa could be prepared, too.
