Marco Asensio reaches agreement on personal terms and a three-year contract with Aston Villa | OneFootball

Paris Saint-Germain attacking midfielder Marco Asensio has agreed personal terms and a three-year contract to join Aston Villa, according to Sky Switzerland journalist Sacha Tavolieri.

Villa want the three-time Champions League winner back at Villa Park after his impressive loan spell during the second half of last term, and the feeling is mutual.

Villans manager Unai Emery dubbed Asensio ‘fantastic’ last term and would love a reunion as he looks to win the Europa League this season.

The Midlands club are on the verge of losing Jacob Ramsey to Newcastle United, and they want to quickly wrap up a deal for the PSG ahead of their Premier League opener against the Magpies on Saturday.

Around €20 million could be enough for Villa to sign the 29-year-old as he is in the final year of his contract at the Parc des Princes club.

They are expected to table their first official bid for Asensio this week, and things could speed up if the French club are satisfied with the offer.

The former Real Madrid star ended his loan spell with eight goals and one assist in 21 appearances for Villa, and they could use his quality across all competitions this season.

Villa have not been very active in the market after UEFA fined them earlier this summer for breaching their financial rules.

They need to sell players before they can spend big if they want to remain compliant with the Premier League’s Profit and Sustainability Rules.
