It has been reported that Aston Villa are keen on signing Belgian sensation Stanis Idumbo. According to The Hard Tackle, Villa's sporting director Monchi is keen to bring the talented attacking midfielder to the Premier League.
Idumbo joined Sevilla in early 2024 after a successful stint at Ajax's youth academy. He has made four first-team appearances since then. His 20-minute cameo during Sevilla's recent 5-1 defeat against Barcelona showcased his talent with a goal.
Despite not yet being a finished product, Idumbo's performances at youth and senior levels have attracted the attention of several top clubs. He specializes in attacking midfield but can also operate on either flank, making him an attractive prospect for Villa.
Sevilla's contract runs until the summer of 2028, so fans hope he will continue to develop there. However, Aston Villa's interest suggests they see him as a potential key player for Unai Emery's team. As a former Sevilla manager, Monchi believes Idumbo could be a valuable addition to Villa's squad, aligning well with Emery's preference for versatility.
Idumbo must now decide whether to continue his development at Sevilla or join a Premier League club such as Aston Villa as Villa look to strengthen their squad during the 2024/2025 season.
