According to reports from Le Quotidien du Foot, Aston Villa and Southampton are looking to sign Valentin Rongier in the summer transfer window.
Villa are looking to bolster their squad this summer following their promotion to the Premier League. They need quality additions in almost every position and signing a top-class central midfielder should be a priority for Dean Smith.
The report claims that Valentin is prepared to move on this summer. Nantes value the 24-year-old at £13.3 million and are ready to offload him to boost their finances.
Rongier is a very good midfielder who has played all his life for Nantes.
