Aston Villa is reportedly prepared to increase its efforts to sign midfielder Ilaix Moriba and currently appears to be the leading club interested in signing him. The club's coach, Unai Emery, is said to have watched the player and was reportedly impressed by his physical attributes and forward runs. Celta Vigo's financial situation could be a significant factor in a potential sale, and according to reports from March 2026, the club anticipates a transfer fee of at least €20 million.
