Rico Lewis has signed a pre-contract with agreement to join Aston Villa in the summer in a deal worth €38.00m

According to The Sun via HITC, Aston Villa is interested in Rico Lewis during the current transfer window.

since Emery wants to lend him. Pep Guardiola will not want to see the 18-year-old leave Manchester City after such a brilliant season.

Rico Lewis was probably the most surprise member of Manchester City’s squad last season.

Pep Guardiola is usually cautious about giving his young players minutes, with the exception of a few.

However, he provided the 18-year-old with enough game experience to demonstrate his ability in all contests.

Lewis made 14 Premier League appearances before scoring his first goal in the Champions League group stage against Sevilla.

His progress in the squad compensated for Joao Cancelo’s sudden departure in January.

With the Portuguese international attracting summer attention ahead of a likely departure from Manchester City.

Lewis performed admirably as an inverted fullback.

Guardiola seems to appreciate what he saw in the 18-year-old.

With Cancelo due to go, the Catalan manager will concentrate more on the young full-back in the coming season.

Guardiola would not let Lewis leave, despite suggestions that Aston Villa are interested in signing him on loan during the current window.

He may have considered temporarily letting the 18-year-old treble winner join another Premier League club.

However, current conditions do not support such a judgement.

Unai Emery remains eager to improve the squad as much as possible, as various players are linked with a move.

Lewis is a promising new talent.

Emery must have recognised how he may help his Leicester club in the upcoming season.

Guardiola is a huge supporter of the 18-year-old, so he will be aware of the challenges in pursuing the aim.

Leeds is also interested in Lewis. However, like Villa, they have no chance of changing Guardiola’s mind.

The Manchester City manager will expect for an even better season from the full-back.

as he may consider Lewis as a long-term successor for Kyle Walker.
