Aston Villa are keeping a watchful eye on Giovani Lo Celso's performances at Villarreal.
Lo Celso, on loan at Villarreal from Tottenham, is a favourite of coach Unai Emery, having played for him previously at Paris Saint-Germain and Villarreal last season.
The Argentine midfielder's name was understood to be one of the players discussed when Emery considered going to Newcastle United in 2021.
Lo Celso impressed on Sunday against Sevilla, switching between a false nine role and midfield. Tottenham would be happy to sell as they overhaul their squad.
