Aston Villa interested in Barcelona’s winger: Report

According to reports from ‘HardTackle‘, and ‘CaughtOffside‘, Premier League club Aston Villa is keeping close tabs on La Liga side FC Barcelona’s winger Raphinha. It is being termed that the Brazilian international could be heading for an exit from Barca in the ongoing window.

Aston Villa has been linked with a few other forward players recently with names like Tammy Abraham, and Dominic Calvert-Lewin also popping up amidst the discussions. However, as far as the Midlands-based club’s interest in Raphinha is concerned, nothing is advanced at this stage in time.

Raphinha obviously has earlier played in the Premier League with Leeds United and does hold a certain pedigree of the top-tier English football. It is where he actually made his name at the club level, before pursuing a move to Barcelona.

It remains to be seen, if Villa pushes for Barca’s star winger in the next couple of days.
