Aston Villa Complete Signing of Jordan Amavi from OGC Nice
Birmingham – Aston Villa has officially completed the signing of left-back Jordan Amavi from OGC Nice, marking the beginning of a new chapter in the player’s career. The English Premier League club confirmed the transfer on their official Twitter account on Monday, following an agreement between the two clubs reached last Saturday.
Amavi, who is of Togolese origin, has long been a subject of interest for top European clubs, including Lyon, who had previously expressed a strong desire to sign the 21-year-old defender. However, Aston Villa has now secured the talented left-back, who has impressed in Ligue 1 with his pace, defensive solidity, and attacking contributions from the full-back position.
The deal sees Amavi make the move to the Premier League, where he will look to continue his development under the guidance of Aston Villa’s coaching staff. The left-back is expected to add depth to Villa’s defensive options, bringing an attacking edge to their left flank with his overlapping runs and delivery into the box.
