Aston Villa seems to be more and more open to the separation of the midfielder attacking Emi Buendia, Leeds United emerged as the main candidate to guarantee the services of 28 years this summer.
Villa initiates suggest that an offer in the region of 20 million pounds sterling would be welcomed, although the Midlands Club can try to bring the costs of 30 million pounds sterling, depending on interest and competition.
Buendia initially joined Villa de Norwich City for a club record in June 2021.
Aston Villa has failed to get the most out of Buendia
More than 99 appearances for the villans, he recorded 10 goals and nine assists, although his influence has decreased following a major knee injury. The LCA rupture in August 2023 excluded it throughout the 2023-2024 campaign.
He spent the second half of last season on loan to Bayer Leverkusen where he impressed.
Now, his future at Villa Park is uncertain, the player is not in the plans of the Manager Unai Emery for the future.
Villanews spoke to Martin Allen about the future of Buendia, he said:
“It goes without saying that the villa must withdraw the maximum costs for it, as they do in each agreement.
“He did well, so they have to try to work with that.
“I think if they get 20 million pounds sterling for him, they will be really happy, but they will try to push around 30 million pounds sterling.
“It would certainly be a good signature for Leeds, because it is so difficult to score goals in the Premier League.
“You have to try a chance on a player who could get 10 goals. It is a big leap in the championship, as we have seen, so it would be a good decision for Leeds, I think.”
A move to Leeds could rekindle Beundia’s career
A move to Leeds United could work for the former Norwich who may have the chance to play in the Premier League and prove himself.
The potential transfer of Buendia could represent an intelligent signature for Leeds, providing experience, quality and creativity to the team.
This decision seems to be mutually beneficial, but the calendar, competitive offers and contractual conditions will determine if Buendia is making the jump this summer.
