Aston Villa and Newcastle will compete for a talented Brazilian midfielder

Lucas Moura, a standout player for Tottenham Hotspur, will depart the team this summer when his contract expires. According to reports, Premier League clubs like Aston Villa and Newcastle United are prepared to sign him for nothing.

The offense of Aston Villa has to be more inventive and varied. Moura can play in any position across the front three, making him a viable alternative for Unai Emery. Depth in the team will be necessary for Aston Villa to compete on all fronts as they fight for European qualifying right now. For the West Midlands club, signing the 30-year-old on a free transfer may turn out to be a great deal. In a similar way, Newcastle must strengthen their assault if they hope to qualify for the Champions League. Allan Saint-Maximin, for example, has mainly fallen short this season; Moura could be an improvement.
