Aston Villa FC transfer news: Sevilla agree deal to sign Jordan Amavi from Championship side for £7.75m

Sevilla have agreed a deal worth potentially £7.75m with Aston Villa for defender Jordan Amavi.

The Spanish club have been pursuing the Frenchman for some time after prioritising the signing of a new left-back this summer.

Sevilla had an original offer of £5.25m rejected by Villa earlier this week, but they have now had a new bid accepted.

According to Estadio Deportivo, the La Liga club will pay £6m upfront for Amavi with a further £1.75m in bonus payments also on the table.

Sevilla are now set to hold personal talks with the 23-year-old - but they are expected to be concluded quickly.
