When a Premier League club has young talents they are valued very highly and certainly not often seen as commodities.
Things are very different in Italian football right now and signing very young players, seeing them develop, usually on loan, and then selling is seen as a way to make money to buy older options and fund contracts for ageing squad members.
There’s an emphasis very much on experience, and Aston Villa can take advantage of that right now. Thursday’s edition of Corriere Torino reports Juventus are looking to sell several of their most talented youngsters in the coming months.
One of those is Dean Huijsen and another prime candidate is Matias Soule. For the latter, Correire Torino name Aston Villa as one of the interested clubs.
It’s said Juventus would be looking at €35-40m, however, that’s their aim and Monchi may be able to negotiate lower for Unai Emery’s side.
The 21-year-old has been on loan at Frosinone this season, and has 10 goals and three assists from 34 appearances. He’s played mainly on the right wing at his loan club.
Essentially, nearly every emerging Juventus talent is under sale consideration so it’s certainly worth Aston Villa having a look.
