Aston Villa want Axel Tuanzebe from Manchester United

Aston Villa are interested in signing Axel Tuanzebe from Manchester United in the summer transfer window, acceding to Football Insider. The 23-year-old defender had loan spells at Villa in 2018 and 2018-19, and the Villans now reportedly want to bring him back to Villa Park.

Dean Smith’s side want to sign a new central defender in the summer transfer window and have identified Tuanzebe as a potential transfer target. Villa are reportedly planning to make a bid for the 23-year-old, who could cost £7 million in transfer fees.

According to WhoScored, Tuanzebe has made one start and five substitute appearances in the Premier League and has made one start and one substitute appearance in the Europa League for United so far this season. The English centre-back is a squad player at the Red Devils, and it would make sense for him to find a new club this summer where he can play regularly and revive his career.
