According to talkSPORT journalist Alex Crook on Twitter, Frank Lampard’s Everton will hold talks with Arnaut Danjuma, a player Unai Emery’s Aston Villa also want to sign in the January transfer window.

Crooks has said that Bournemouth and Everton plan to hold talks over signing Villarreal winger Danjuma this month.

The Daily Mail had earlier claimed that Villa and Tottenham Hotspur are also keen on the 25-year-old winger, described as “absolutely exceptional” by former Liverpool striker Michael Owen on BT Sport in 2021.

Villarreal are reportedly open to sending the former Bournemouth winger out on loan in the January transfer window.

Villa should step up

In our view, if Aston Villa are really keen on Arnaut Danjuma, then they simply have to start talks of their own with the Everton target.

Villa are a club on the up, and in Unai Emery, they have one of the best managers in the world.

Danjuma could be very tempted to move to the Villans.

After all, Everton are in real danger of getting relegated to the Championship, and the Netherlands international winger is likely to pick Villa over the Toffees right now.
