Aston Villa are now planning a bid to sign the £22m Serie A star ahead of Inter Milan
Aston Villa are now lining up a move to sign Sassuolo defender Tarik Muharemovic, ahead of interest from Serie A giants Inter Milan this summer.
Aston Villa are planning a Muharemovic hijack
As Aston Villa may be able to qualify for the Champions League for the second time in three seasons, they are slowly starting to stay at the top table in Europe.
Even if PSR’s problems persist, it could be a summer full of reinforcements for Unai Emery. Names like James Trafford and Leo Scienza are already threatening to steal the headlines and both would be excellent additions.
Even if that reinforcement doesn’t come without a big exit, which could be Morgan Rogers, there’s a good chance the Villans are here to stay in the Champions League.
It’s not just on the pitch that they want to get one from rival clubs. According to reports in Italy, Aston Villa are planning a huge swoop to sign Muharemovic ahead of Inter Milan and Juventus this summer.
The Midlands club are looking to put their European rivals to the sword and could land a €25m (£22m) deal to sign the Sassuolo star.
If Aston Villa were to fend off interest from some of Europe’s top clubs, it would no doubt be a big statement and perhaps among its elite in recent years.

Aston Villa are preparing to make a move for a new big-money star this summer.
In terms of player, he, Muharemovic would be an excellent addition and an immediate improvement for Victor Lindelof this summer.
£22m Muharemovic could be Konsa
It’s becoming clearer and clearer every week that Ezri Konsa is the mainstay at the heart of Aston Villa’s back line. He is right in his place and will provide the foundations at the peak of his power.
Emery just needs to prioritize finding a long-term partner for the England international this summer and that’s where Muharemovic could fit in.

As a duo, Muharemovic and Konsa can be a perfect match. The former tends to focus his strength on the offensive side of the defense, winning twice as many tackles as the latter this season.
Konsa, on the other hand, boasts one of the best finishing rates in the Premier League and could offset Muharemovic’s struggles in that department.

With Champions League football set for next season if all goes to plan this summer, the depth that Konsa, Paul Torres, Lindelof and Muharemovic can provide would be a clear boost for Emery and his side.
