Unai Emery is reportedly planning on making former Arsenal and Manchester United target Pau Torres his first Aston Villa transfer having finally arrived in the Midlands.
The Spaniard was confirmed as Steven Gerrard’s successor at Villa Park last month but officially did not start work until this week. In the brief time he has had as boss, he has been assessing his squad with his Villa debut set to come against United on Sunday afternoon.
He will only have a couple of matches in charge before the Premier League takes an extended break for the World Cup in Qatar. Yet it appears that he has already started planning additions to his current crop of players.
