Aston Villa sporting director Monchi has seemingly been the driving power behind the membership’s common curiosity in La Liga gamers, and on Friday, he was casting his eye over two targets.
Monchi was known as at Vallecas as he took in Rayo Vallecano’s 2-1 victory over Celta Vigo. Earlier within the week, it was reported that Aston Villa are enthusiastic about right-backs Andrei Ratiu and Oscar Mingueza, and each have been in motion on Friday night time.

It’s Mingueza that Aston Villa are notably enthusiastic about, and it’s believed that they might make a transfer for the 25-year-old earlier than the winter switch window closes in the beginning of February. They’re ready to pay his €20m launch clause, and in the event that they did, Celta could be powerless to cease a deal from occurring.
It stays to be seen whether or not Aston Villa make their transfer for Mingueza – if that’s the case, it might be a large blow for Celta.
