Aston Villa want to sign Real Betis left-back Alex Moreno in January - despite already having Lucas Digne and Ashley Young - with boss Unai Emery also chasing former Everton winger Gerard Deulofeu

Aston Villa are attempting to sign Alex Moreno from Real Betis this month as boss Unai Emery also sets his sights on a winger.

Despite having Lucas Digne, Ludwig Augustinsson and Ashley Young as possible left-backs, Emery is keen to bring in another and has targeted Moreno, 29. Talks are ongoing, with Betis already thought to be looking at possible replacements.

Moreno turns 30 in June and it is unlikely he would agree to come to Villa as a back-up player.

Ashley Young may also fall down the pecking order
