According to Italian journalist Fabrizio Romano, the deal will take the form of a loan with an obligation to buy. All parties have reached an agreement, and the player has also given the green light to join Aston Villa.

Wan-Bissaka is fully on board with the club's project and is eager to take on a new challenge in the Premier League. His arrival would allow Unai Emery to strengthen the right flank and bring more competition for Matty Cash.

Aston Villa have been interested in the defender for several weeks, making him a top priority for the summer transfer window. Negotiations have finally resulted in a deal between the two clubs.

Romano also reports that the green light has been given for the medical examination. The transfer is now only a step away from being made official, pending successful medicals and the completion of final administrative details.

The Congolese international Wan-Bissaka brings solid experience in English football. Developed at Crystal Palace, he later joined Manchester United before signing with West Ham in August 2024.
