Danilho Doekhi Transfer from FC Union Berlin to Aston Villa
According to Bild, Danilho Doekhi is leaving Union Berlin and has entered the final six months of his contract. Doekhi could depart the Bundesliga club on a free transfer this summer, though Aston Villa aims to agree to a deal for a reduced fee this month. Villa is described as his most likely destination ahead of Leeds United. The club's pursuit could be aided by a family connection, as Doekhi is Lamare Bogarde's cousin.

Danilho Doekhi, a 27-year-old Dutch centre-back, has a contract with Union Berlin that expires in the summer and he is not seeking to extend it. This means the club could only receive a transfer fee in the current window. Two Premier League clubs, Leeds United and Aston Villa, are showing the most interest in the defender. Aston Villa is the club where Doekhi's cousin, Lamare Bogarde, is under contract. The former Netherlands U21 international joined Union Berlin in July 2022 and has made 4 appearances in the Bundesliga this season, providing 2 assists. His current market value is estimated by Transfermarkt at €13 million. Reports in summer 2025 cited a release clause of approximately €9 million, while his asking price was reportedly €15 million in late 2024.
