Aston Villa are on the verge of completing the signing of Leon Goretzka after reaching full agreement on the deal, with final approval now in place and the remaining details settled. The Bayern Munich midfielder is expected to undergo his medical shortly before signing a contract believed to run for two or three years. According to Matteo Moretto, Unai Emery played a decisive role in securing the move, personally calling Goretzka to outline the project and convince him to join. Villa intensified negotiations over the past 72 hours, accelerating their push to reinforce the midfield ahead of the new Premier League season.
The club views Goretzka as a key addition capable of adding experience, physicality and tactical versatility to Emery’s squad. His arrival continues Villa’s ambitious recruitment drive as they prepare for domestic and European commitments.
