DONE DEAL: Aston Villa legend sends Fulham over £26m to sign one target……..
Aston Villa and Crystal Palace are two center-back targets that Fulham is still pursuing. In light of rumors of Fulham’s transfer interest, Aston Villa great Gabriel Agbonlahor is “confident” that the team will try to cash in on defender Diego Carlos this summer. This transfer window, the Cottagers are still looking for a center back after Tosin Adarabioyo left the team as a free agent to sign with Chelsea. Although he brought Villarreal’s Jorge Cuenca into the team, Marco Silva seems intent on adding another player to fill that role.
In recent days, there have been several rumors of many bids being made for Crystal Palace player Joachim Andersen, and those stories coincide with negotiations for Villains star Carlos. The London club has ‘shown interest’ in the player, who has slid down the Villa Park hierarchy, according to a recent Daily Mail article.While Unai Emery’s club won first team football last season, Carlos had 27 appearances but was in and out of the lineup frequently. The 31-year-old, who will cost Aston Villa £26 million in 2022, was especially strong during Emery’s team’s victory over Arsenal in April at the Emirates Stadium.
