Aston Villa have almost completed the club-record signing of Villarreal Centre-Back Pau Torres
Torres has been heavily linked with Aston Villa since Unai Emery’s arrival and will add to an increasingly strong defence.
He serves as the clubs second signing this window, with the first being Tielemans on a free transfer.
Torres will sign a 5 year deal at Aston Villa, taking him through to 2028. This means Torres will spend all of his prime years at the club.
Torres costs Aston Villa in the region of 35 million pounds, around the same price as Emiliano Buendia, but it is believed will be slightly more to make him the record signing.
Aston Villa continue to strengthen in their push for Champions League this season.
