According to GiveMeSport, Aston Villa have shown interest in signing England and Lille midfielder Angel Gomes.
The Premier League club have enjoyed a great start to the new season under the leadership of manager Unai Emery.
They have managed to win both their matches in the Champions League and they are currently sitting fifth in the Premier League standings.
Their famous win against Bayern Munich has given them hope of a brighter future with the club ready to back Emery to make more additions to the squad.
Gomes is the latest player being eyed by the Premier League club and he could join as a free agent since his contract with the French club is expiring at the end of the season.
Villa have joined Manchester United, Tottenham and Newcastle United in the race to sign the former Red Devils midfielder who has recently made his Three Lions debut under Lee Carsley.
Man United have scouted the midfielder recently and any club interested in a move to sign him would have to beat Erik ten Hag’s team for his signature.
