Aston Villa has taken the first steps to secure the signing of Samu Aghehowa in the upcoming summer transfer window. Monchi, the sporting director of the English club, has already made contact with the striker's entourage at FC Porto, seeking to outmaneuver other teams that have also shown interest in the young Spaniard. With the need to strengthen their attack, the Villans see in the goal-scorer a future investment that could enhance their offense for the next season.

The 20-year-old forward has had a remarkable progression in recent months, establishing himself as one of the great promises of European football. After his development in the youth ranks of Granada, he was signed by Atletico Madrid in 2023, although he did not make his debut with the Colchoneros as he was loaned to Deportivo Alaves. His performance in the past season and his participation in the 2024 Paris Olympic Games, where he won the gold medal with Spain, earned him a contract with FC Porto in August 2024.

Aston Villa Wants to Sign Samu Aghehowa

In his first season with the Portuguese team, Aghehowa has shown his goal-scoring ability, tallying 20 goals and three assists in 32 matches. This performance has sparked interest from various European clubs, but Aston Villa seems determined to lead the race for his signing. The departure of Jhon Duran to Al-Nassr in winter left the team with limited options in attack, and although Marcus Rashford has been linked to a possible transfer, his future remains uncertain.

With Monchi leading the negotiations, Aston Villa hopes to finalize the signing of the young forward as soon as possible and strengthen their squad with one of the emerging gems of Spanish football.
