The summer transfer window has begun and the clubs are signing the players and managers real quick. Aston Villa are also looking to add firepower to their midfield after a successful season in 2020/21.
Aston Villa finished 11th on the points table in 2020/21 after barely escaping relegation in the 2019/20 season.

According to Daily Mail, Aston Villa are interested in securing the services of Emile Smith Rowe who has just two years left in his contract. Also, they are looking to acquire the services of Emi Buendia who is scouted by multiple clubs in the English Premier League.
Aston Villa are interested in Arsenal's promising 20-year-old attacking midfielder, Emile Smith Rowe. Norwich star Emiliano Buendia is another name on Villa's radar, though the Canaries will be desperate to keep hold of him for the upcoming season back in the Premier League.
Emi Buendia had a great season with Norwich City in EFL Championship. The Argentine international scored 15 goals and assisted 15 times in 39 games for the Canaries. He played an instrumental role in Norwich’s promotion. On the other hand, Emile Smith Rowe played a pivotal role in bringing Arsenal back to the top half of the points table.
