Aston Villa want to sign Neal Maupay

Aston Villa are interested in signing the Brentford striker Neal Maupay this summer.

According to journalist Graeme Bailey, the newly-promoted side haven’t given up on the Bees forward just yet.

Dean Smith wants to improve his attacking options and Maupay would be a solid addition.

The 22-year-old had a fantastic season with Brentford last season and he managed to score 28-goals for them.

He could be the ideal partner for Wesley Moraes next season. Villa will need to good attack to breach the Premier League defences next season and Maupay is a proven goalscorer.
