L. Digne gets closer to transfer to "Aston Villa" © JumpStory

„Aston Villa“ is soon to receive another solid addition. Journalist Fabrizio Romano announces that soon, Liverpool's „Everton“ defender Lucas Digne should join the team led by Steven Gerrard. Some time ago, it was announced that the 28-year-old Frenchman wants to leave the ranks of the „Toffees“ and move to another team in the „Premier“ league. „Newcastle“ showed active interest in the defender, but the player himself did not want to move to a team fighting for survival. It was expected that the Frenchman would be hunted by London's „Chelsea“, but the „aristocrats“ withdrew from the battle for the player. The same source announces that „Everton“ and „Aston Villa“ are still in negotiations, but the deal could be finalized this week. It is worth reminding that not long ago, „Aston Villa“ borrowed Philippe Coutinho from „Barcelona“."
