Aston Villa make surprise approach to sign popular Tottenham player

Aston Villa have made a shock enquiry for Tottenham Hotspur forward Dejan Kulusevski as a potential replacement for Moussa Diaby, according to reports. 

France international Diaby has been linked with a move to Saudi Arabia this summer, with Italian journalist Rudy Galetti reporting that Villa and Al Ittihad have already agreed terms, while the player has reached a verbal agreement.

That will leave Unai Emery in serious need of a high-quality winger after he guided Aston Villa to Champions League qualification.
