Aston Villa is targeting Mateo Retegui and is ready to offer 55 million euros to Atalanta.

Aston Villa has shown interest in acquiring Mateo Retegui as a potential replacement for Jhon Duran. The club's scouts have reportedly been impressed by Retegui's recent performances in matches against Cagliari and Empoli. Nevertheless, Atalanta is not focusing on a sale unless they receive an offer in the region of €55 million. The 25-year-old Argentinian, who represents the Italian national team, is also drawing attention from Arsenal, Roma, Napoli, and Juventus, creating a competitive environment for Villa. Despite these challenges, Villa's manager, Unai Emery, and director of football operations, Monchi, are said to be determined to enhance the team, reflecting the club's ambitious objectives.
