Aston Villa could land Celta Vigo misfit Emre Mor for nothing.
According to The Sun, Aston Villa are considering a move to sign Celta Vigo winger Emre Mor – and they may be able to sign him for free.
Mor, 21, has once tabbed as ‘the Turkish Messi’ having impressed with Nordsjaelland in Denmark, before heading on to Borussia Dortmund in 2016.
The Sun note that attitude problems have plagued Mor with Dortmund and now Celta Vigo, with his off-field behaviour frustrating his managers, with turning up late for training not exactly going down well.
Celta are allegedly willing to let Mor go for free now, and Aston Villa are keen, alongside Norwich City and Sheffield United, with all three promoted teams interested.
Mor played just 10 La Liga games last season, and his time with the Galician side appears to be over, but whether a Premier League move is on the cards remains to be seen.
Yes, Mor is hugely talented. He’s quick, skilful and technically gifted, whilst possessing a superb left foot, but there are plenty of reasons why this wouldn’t be a smart move for Villa.
They’ve worked hard in recent times to get a determined, hard-working squad that buy into Dean Smith’s methods, and adding Mor into that mix could be a problem.
Add in that he’s small and diminutive, which could be an issue for a young player in the robust Premier League, and Mor is a real risk – even on a free transfer.
