Aston Villa are reportedly preparing to sign Benjamin Nygren. The Swedish winger, who has impressed during his time at Celtic, is attracting interest from the Premier League side as they look to strengthen their squad.

Nygren joined Celtic in 2022 but has found first-team opportunities limited. Villa see potential in the young attacker and are keen to bring him to England to develop further under their management.

The move would benefit both parties Givemesport reports: Aston Villa gain a promising talent to boost their attacking options, while Nygren gets a fresh start in a more competitive league, aiming for regular playing time and growth.

If he does go hopefully Celtic will get a good fee which we better use during this summer transfer window, no more project signings.
