According to The Sun, Aston Villa has reignited their interest in acquiring Strasbourg's Habib Diarra for £25 million. The club is making a renewed £25 million bid for the Senegalese midfielder, having closely monitored the 21-year-old creative player over recent weeks following significant interest last season. Among Premier League clubs, Aston Villa's interest is reportedly the strongest and most profound. Nevertheless, Chelsea might influence Diarra's future since Strasbourg shares the same ownership as the Premier League club, with BlueCo overseeing the French team. Strasbourg is willing to sell Diarra at the right price, having already turned down a £15 million offer from Eintracht Frankfurt, which suggests they are open to offers from the Premier League. While Everton and Nottingham Forest are also keeping an eye on the situation, Aston Villa's pursuit is considered the most earnest. Unai Emery is reportedly planning to reorganize his squad, potentially creating an opportunity for Diarra to join as a new No10. Diarra, who has changed his international allegiance from France to Senegal, is viewed as prepared for the next phase in his club career.
