Aston Villa set to sign Manchester United defender

By Promise Amadi

Newly promoted Premier League club, Aston Villa are set to sign Manchester United defender Axel Tuanzebe on a permanent basis.

Villa are preparing a deal worth around £8million with add-ons on top.

The 21-year-old center back made 30 league appearances on loan at Villa Park.

He formed a superb defensive partnership with Aston Villa defender, Tyrone Mings.

Manchester United manager, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer might reject an offer to sell Tuanzebe because he needs at least one new center back.
