Diego Llorente Transfer from Real Betis to Aston Villa
Llorente, who has played every game for seventh-placed La Liga side Real Betis this season, is on Villa’s list of desired centre-backs. However, the Spain international is happy at Betis, and they do not want to let him go in January. Sources say a winter move will be tough if Villa proceed with their interest, especially if the exit of Carlos does not happen.
Aston Villa are reportedly interested in signing Diego Llorente to strengthen their backline. However, Real Betis are reluctant to entertain talks over a move, indicating that the transfer might be challenging.
Aston Villa are reportedly keen on securing a double deal for Real Betis duo Johnny Cardoso and Diego Llorente.
Diego Llorente, a Spanish central defender and an essential player for Real Betis, has caught the attention of Aston Villa. Monchi, the sporting director of Aston Villa, is reportedly considering Llorente as a possible addition to strengthen their defense. Although Llorente joined Real Betis in the summer of 2024 for a modest sum of three million euros, his outstanding performances have attracted interest from financially stronger clubs such as Aston Villa. The lack of a substantial release clause in his contract could enable him to depart for a relatively low fee in the upcoming transfer market.
