Ivory Coast youngster on his way to Aston Villa!

The Premier League giants are reportedly interested in an Ivorian talent who is impressing at ASEC Mimosas in the Ivorian Premier League, with the team finishing second in the Ivorian Premier League this season, and eyes have been on the 17-year-old star since the start of the current campaign.

The player is Mohamed Koné, who plays in a defensive midfield position, and reports have revealed that Unai Emery's Aston Villa are interested in bringing the youngster to Villa Park because of his talent and technical ability as well.

How did it happen!

Aston Villa's interest in the talented player was not accidental, he was spotted when his team ASEC Mimosas were on a trip to Birmingham and was spotted by Unai Emery and they were very impressed with his talent.

Although the English club wants to sign the player immediately, they will have to wait until July 3rd until the talented youngster turns 18, although he did play for the Ivory Coast U20 team in 2024.
