In the final stages of negotiations with Sevilla, a Premier League club is poised to secure the services of Argentine defender Acuna, as revealed by reputable source Fabrizio Romano. The club has already reached an agreement on personal terms with the player, a factor that is expected to facilitate the transfer process.
Considering the bigger picture, Acuna currently holds a pivotal role within Sevilla’s lineup, recently contributing an assist to Youssef En-Nesyri in their UEFA Super Cup encounter against Manchester City. However, this could potentially mark his farewell appearance for the Andalusian side, as Villa pushes to finalize the deal, with further discussions scheduled for Saturday.
Notably, Villa is projected to invest approximately €15 million (£13 million) as part of the transfer fee for Acuna. The funds generated from this transaction are expected to be reinvested by Sevilla, with the probable replacement being Borna Sosa from VFB Stuttgart.
