Aston Villa has submitted a £15 million bid for Dutch forward Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund. The club is seeking to strengthen its attack and address its defensive vulnerabilities during the upcoming transfer window.
Aston Villa has made a £15 million bid for Dutch forward Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund . Dortmund reportedly values Malen at around £20 million, and negotiations are ongoing. Malen, 25, has scored 39 goals in 131 appearances for Dortmund since joining from PSV Eindhoven in 2021 but has seen limited playing time this season. Villa manager Unai Emery is looking to add another goalscoring threat to his squad, as the team has struggled to find consistent firepower.
While bolstering the defense, which has conceded 31 goals in 19 Premier League matches, is also a priority, Villa recognizes the need for more offensive options. The club is also expected to make several loan moves in January, including sending wingers Jaden Philogene and Louie Barry out on loan, and forward Lewis Dobbin to Norwich City
