“Aston Villa” coach Unai Emery is approaching a major goal.

The strategist was determined to sign Sevilla's “Betis” defender Alex Moreno in the winter, and his wish should soon become a reality.

According to journalist Fabrizio Romano, both teams have already exchanged transfer documents and the deal could be officially announced soon.

The 29-year-old Spaniard from “Betis” will receive a compensation of 14 million euros.

In the near future, A. Moreno is expected to undergo a medical examination and become an “Aston Villa” player.
