Aston Villa hasn’t made a transfer decision involving a £25m-rated Rangers ace. However, they have been linked to several talented players valued around £25m. Here are some potential targets:
– Lutsharel Geertruida: Aston Villa is reportedly in talks with Feyenoord defender Lutsharel Geertruida, valued at £25m. Geertruida, a Dutch international, is considered “absolutely ready” to make the step up to a big club like Aston Villa. He would likely compete with existing players like Ezri Konsa, Pau Torres and Matty Cash for a starting spot.
– Habib Diarra: Villa is also said to be interested in signing Strasbourg midfielder Habib Diarra for £25m, beating out competition from Everton and Nottingham Forest. Diarra’s impressive stats, including 4 goals and 5 assists in 30 Ligue 1 matches, make him an attractive target.
– Maximilian Beier: Aston Villa is reportedly in advanced talks to sign Hoffenheim striker Maximilian Beier for £25m. Beier’s prolific form, with 16 goals and 3 assists in the Bundesliga, has drawn interest from several Premier League clubs, but Villa seems to be leading the charge.

Aston Villa’s transfer strategy under Unai Emery focuses on blending experienced talent with youthful exuberance. Their recent signings, such as Pau Torres and Moussa Diaby, demonstrate their commitment to building a competitive squad. If they secure any of these £25m-rated players, it would likely enhance their team’s performance and signal their intent to challenge for higher honors in the Premier League ¹ ² ³.
