Aston Villa is leading the competition to sign Carlos Soler, a Spanish international who is also being offered to Tottenham and Arsenal. Rising through the Valencia ranks, PSG paid £17 million in the summer of 2020. He has made only 62 appearances for the French giants, often coming off the bench, despite his potential.
Only 11 Ligue 1 games had Soler started this season, underscoring his difficulties to establish himself as a regular member of the first squad. His little playing time during PSG’s UEFA Champions League campaign highlights even more how far down the pecking order he is. As the team is ready for a makeover to support manager Luis Enrique, PSG intends to sell Soler among other players.
Spurs and Arsenal, who are looking to add midfield players, have both made offers for the Spanish midfielder. Though they have the chance, neither North London team has moved to sign him definitively yet. Aston Villa, meanwhile, has been pursuing Soler aggressively and seems to be in the lead. Knowing Soler from their time in La Liga, manager Unai Emery and president of football operations Monchi consider him to be a great acquisition. Villa is an appealing location because of their strengthened market position brought forth by their Champions League qualifying this season.
PSG Midfielder Has Been Offered To Arsenal
Soler is seen by Aston Villa as a possible Nicolo Zaniolo successor. While Zaniolo may be bought permanently, Villa is looking at other possibilities because of his poor performances. The versatility of Soler to play on the wings, in a deeper position, or as an attacking midfielder increases his attractiveness. Emery, eager to get Soler into his team, finds great value in his adaptability.
The club is eager to complete the transaction, hence talks between Villa and Soler are already under progress. Villa leads the way in getting Soler’s signing because of his proactive demeanor and fit inside their system. If accomplished, Soler’s transfer may strengthen Villa’s midfield options and provide them the depth and calibre they need for their next European campaign.
Carlos Soler, may alter everything. Soler is a versatile player and Unai Emery is fully aware of his skill. Soler is exactly what Villa needs for their Champions League campaign—more depth. He could get driven to prove himself because of his lack of playing time at PSG, which would be very advantageous to Villa. Should he succeed at Villa, Arsenal and Tottenham may come to regret not putting in more effort for him. Villa has shown with this deal his desire and astute transfer market approach. The element they’re lacking to have a big effect next season may be Soler.

Targeting Jorrel Hato, the promising Ajax defender, Mikel Arteta sees him as a crucial summer signing. Hato is Arteta’s first option as Arsenal looks to strengthen their defence. A center-back will improve the Gunners’ present lineup and guarantee their future.
Arsenal is in a good position this summer due of their successful recruiting plan. Their team only has to be strengthened by a few players. Though getting an attacker and a midfielder is still crucial, Arteta clearly wants a top defensive player. With William Saliba and Gabriel Magalhaes not getting enough protection, Arteta wants to strengthen the back line. Jakub Kiwior and Takehiro Tomiyasu can step in. However, they have shown more promise in other positions, therefore a committed center-back is needed.
