Aston Villa have seen an audacious attempt to sign Real Madrid youngster Takefusa Kuba on loan knocked back by the Spanish champions.

, Kubo was fancied by Borussia Dortmund, Ajax, PSG and V🌺illa and is now set to sign for a club on lo⛦an.

Osasuna, Villarreal, Celta Vigo and Granada are among the favourites a𒁃nd the team who offers the most first-team football w✤ill land the player.

Villa boss Dean ꦺSmith will now try and turn his a🐟ttention towards another winger to bolster his squad.

Kuba could have been a tremendous addition to the Villa squad,✅ with the Madrid player deemed a genuine w🐼onderkid.

The 19-year-old cꦓost Los Blancos from FC Tokyo and has been hailed as the ‘Japane🔜se Messi’ .

A sꦜkilful wing൩er capable of playing on both sides, or as a makeshift No.10, he made 35 appearances for Real Mallorca on loan last season.

Kuba will clearly benefit from the first-team experience and his four goals and five assists of⛦fered a glimpse of what’s to come in the future.

It seems as though that man with seven caps for Japa🐬n is set to head out on loan once more next season and an announcement over which club have won the rꦐace looks forthcoming.

Kuba is still awaiting his first appearance for R💜eal ♛Madrid but his potential holds no limits.

Villa will go in search of quality this summer having sꦆecured their Premier League status with a 1-1 draw on the final dayℱ of last season.

TBR View – Have Villa changed tact in the transfer market?

Last summ𒆙er, Villa chose quantity over quality and it nearly bit them on the backside and𝐆 cost them their place in the top-flight.

With thaಞt in mind, the club will probably priorities one or two top signings, w🅺ith a couple of stellar loans perhaps thrown in for good measure.

Kuba wo🅰uld of course been an unknown quantity but signing a Real Madrid wonderkid on loan could have proved a quality piece of busin♔ess.
