Aston Villa receive ‘significant boost’ in race to sign seven-goal...

Champions League, are thought to be leading the race to acquire a highly regarded England player

in the summer.

Under Unai Emery’s leadership, Villa has had an incredible season this year, making it to the

Champions League quarterfinals and, by making it to the FA Cup semi-final this year, guaranteeing

their first visit to Wembley Stadium since the Championship play-offs in 2019.

In addition to having a great run of success in the league that has propelled them back into

Champions League contention, the Lions are getting closer to winning their first domestic trophy

since 1996. This season, five spots are up for grabs. Villa had a very busy January transfer window,

and that trend is probably going to continue this summer as Emery tries to push the team to new

heights with more astute arrivals.

According to Give Me Sport, Aston Villa has received a major assist in its efforts to entice Noni

Madueke to Villa Park. According to the report, Chelsea has lately given Emery a big boost and the

west London team has stated that they will consider bids for the winger this summer. Emery is a

tremendous fan of the player.

When the Villans traded Jhon Duran in January, they received a large cash infusion, and they are

eager to use some of that money to acquire a new winger. It is believed that Marcus Rashford is a

likely target. Although his loan agreement includes a £40 million buyout option, there may still be

funds available for two new players, since Football Insider reports that Leon Bailey is considering

leaving.

With just two league goals and four assists from the previous season, the Jamaican has found it

difficult to replicate his success, and first team starts have become more scarce in recent months.

As a right-sided winger throughout the majority of his career, Noni Madueke is well-known for his

amazing speed, agility, and ability to dribble past opponents with ease. b In 33 games this season,

he has scored 10 goals and provided an assist. In the second game of the season, he famously scored

a hat-trick against Wolves. After signing from PSV, Madueke originally battled for consistent

playing time at Stamford Bridge. However, since the end of the previous season, he has grown in

importance within the team and established himself as a full England international.

Give Me Sport is aware of Villa claims to be the front-runners and believes Madueke is a player that

fits their project, however Newcastle United and Tottenham Hotspur are also said to be interested.

According to the article, Madueke is worth approximately £30 million, which is the exact amount

the Blues spent for him in January 2023. But since he still has five years left on his contract and

interest rates are high, the Stamford Bridge team might try to get a greater price.
