Aston Villa ‘hold talks with Arnaut Danjuma’ as Villarreal winger flies to England to seal January transfer
ARNAUT DANJUMA has arrived in England in order to seal a transfer to the Premier League, according to reports.
The Villarreal star has been granted permission by his club to travel to England for "talks" over a loan transfer.
While they have reported the interest of Bournemouth in re-signing the Dutchman on loan, a number of other parties are also interested in a transfer.
Unai Emery's Aston Villa are one of the main sides who want to bolster their attack by signing Danjuma on loan.
The 25-year-old shone in a more central role at the Yellow Submarine last season, scoring 16 goals in 34 games with Emery as his manager.

And now the former Arsenal coach wants to rekindle their partnership for the rest of the season in the Premier League.
However, Villa will face pressure from Bournemouth and Frank Lampard's Everton to seal a deal.
Both the Cherries and the Toffee's are embroiled in a relegation scrap.
And neither side boasts a player with more than four goals, with Kieffer Moore and Phillip Billing on four at the Vitality Stadium and Anthony Gordon and Demarai Gray on three at Goodison Park.

Villa have Danny Ings, but he seems to have fallen out of favour at the club since Christmas, despite his equaliser against Wolves earlier this month.
With both Crystal Palace and Everton interested in signing Ings, a transfer for Danjuma may consequently trigger a move for the Englishman.
