Aston Villa are the latest club to express an interest in midfielder Manu Kone, who has been extensively linked with a move to the Premier League this summer.
According to a Daily Mail report, the Villans have joined Wolves in the race to recruit the 22-year-old.
During his time with Borussia Monchengladbach, Manu Kone established himself as one of Europe’s most dynamic midfield players. And it appears that he is on his way to the Premier League.
According to reports from the Sunday People this weekend, Liverpool want to add Kone to their ranks after previously recruiting Alexis MacAllister.
However, the Reds do not have a clear path to his signing. According to the Daily Mail, Aston Villa and Wolves are the latest teams to express interest in Kone.

According to the estimate, the Frenchman is worth roughly £35 million.
Kone can fill most roles in the middle of the park. It’s easy to see why so many Premier League clubs want to sign him this summer.
Meanwhile, Villa are poised to return to European action next year after an incredible ascent under Unai Emery. This season, they finished eighth in the Premier League.
They will also play in the Europa Conference League next season. The Villans will undoubtedly be inspired by the spectacles witnessed by West Ham last week.
Obviously, Kone may find it difficult to turn down Liverpool if they step up their interest. But he may also be wary about the step up at this stage of his career.
Villa are a team on the up. But they are not there yet. So joining them presents a really exciting opportunity for many this summer.
