Aston Villa are interested in signing Parma midfielder Adrian Bernabe.
According to a report from Milan Live, the 24-year-old midfielder is on the radar of Premier League clubs and it will be interesting to see if Aston Villa are able to seal a deal.
Adrian Bernabé may dream of a comeback
He is a graduate of Manchester City’s academy and the opportunity to return to England could be exciting for him. However, Aston Villa will also face competition from Napoli and Roma.
It is believed that acquiring the player would cost around 25 million euros, so Aston Villa certainly have the financial power to seal the deal. They need more quality and depth in the middle of the park and Bernabe would be a quality addition. He will add technical ability, creativity and control to the side. The opportunity to play for Aston Villa could be exciting for him. It would be a big step up in his career and he will be looking to improve himself in the Premier League.
Villa move could be ideal for Bernabe
At 24 years old, he is at the peak of his career and could be the perfect time to take on a new challenge. A move to the Premier League could be ideal for him. Unai Emery will be able to bring out the best in players and develop them into quality midfielders for the Premier League.
The midfielder may feel he has unfinished business in the Premier League and will be keen to prove himself in English football. Aston Villa have an ambitious project and a quality team. There is no doubt that it will be an attractive transfer destination for the midfielder.
A reported asking price of 25 million euros could look like a bargain in the future if the player adapts quickly to English and makes an immediate impact.
