Earlier this year, Rokas Pukštas was linked with English giants Aston Villa. However, he and his family believed it was not an ideal destination for his development and preferred Germany instead.
Aston Villa is monitoring USA starlet Rokas Pukstas for a potential transfer. Pukstas has been making a significant impact in midfield at Croatian club Hajduk Split.
Rokas Pukštas has been making waves in the football industry, and his impressive performance at Hajduk Split has piqued the interest of several clubs. There is a strong interest from Aston Villa, among other clubs, in acquiring the talented player. Pukštas' high position in the list of the biggest talents in European leagues will certainly attract more attention from European clubs.
Hajduk's new sporting director Nikola Kalinić claims that Rokas is not for sale, the fact that he recently signed a cooperation agreement with the most famous Croatian football agent Andy Bar suggests that some business is brewing. Moreover, we learn, Arsenal, Aston Villa and West Ham, who have no problem loosening the purse, are interested in Pukštas.
Daily Mail reported that Aston Villa is interested in Rokas Pukštas. The player has also been invited to the first part of the US preparations for the Olympic Games (U23 team).
Rokas Pukštas is a player of interest for several European clubs. He has attracted the attention of several Bundesliga clubs, and now it has been revealed that three English clubs have also entered the race.
Aston Villa is interested in Rokas Pukštas, who is impressing in midfield at Croatian side Hajduk Split.
Aston Villa is interested in the transfer of Rokas Pukštas. Hajduk is expecting offers this summer and the player wants to take the next step in his career.
Rokas Pukštas, a young American of Lithuanian descent, is on the radar of three English clubs, including Aston Villa. There is also interest from two unknown German clubs, one of which could be RB Leipzig, which has been tracking the 19-year-old who may soon be heading overseas to join the US Olympic team selection. He recently signed with manager Andy Bare's agency, which has previously found solutions with Hajduk's president Ivan Bilić that are best for all parties. Despite Hajduk's desire to only sell one player, it seems inevitable that Pukštas will be sold, as it is difficult to keep such a gem who has a bright future ahead of him.
The English Daily Mail writes that in addition to unnamed clubs from the Bundesliga, Hajduk's young hope Rokas Pukštas (19) is being followed by three of their clubs, namely the very high-profile trio, Aston Villa, West Ham and Arsenal.
