Aston Villa explore ambitious move for Barcelona star as Emery makes his interest clear

Aston Villa are reportedly considering a move for Barcelona midfielder Gavi, with manager Unai Emery eager to bring the 22-year-old Spanish international to Villa Park. The midfielder has seen limited playing time under manager Hansi Flick this season, having started only two La Liga matches.

Securing a permanent transfer could prove challenging, as Gavi remains under contract with Barcelona until 2030. The Catalan club reportedly considers him central to their future plans, with journalist Fabrizio Romano indicating Barcelona have no intention of selling him.
