Wes Posted June 23, 2013 Author Share Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) French site Mercato365.com say that Belhanda may be moving closer to a move to Aston Villa. They've come to unerstand that Belhanda's people are still in contact with Aston Villa, with discussions focusing on the contract for the player as a potential fee has already been agreed with Montpellier. No quotes though. Just a "we understand from our sources." In fact I don't think this means he's any closer to moving to us, but it perhaps is news that we appear to still be in contact with his agent.

Edit: Looks like I was beaten to the punch by tomaspg The guy who wrote the article says his source is simply "somebody close to Belhanda", which I assume is why there is no quotes. Once again a foreign article states that we made a bid which was accepted, yet no doubt we will still have people saying it is impossible to sign him as he will be too pricey.

Edit: Looks like I was beaten to the punch by tomaspg there enough punch for everyone! anyways, most of our signings have been brought to light by foreign newspapers as lambert/lerner obviously likes to play their cards close to the chest. So with that said im going to stay optimistic, hopefully his wish of playing in the premier league will be enough to get him here! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Link? I'm pretty sure the chairman wouldn't tell him to choose out of several clubs which he would like to talk to if they hadn't been at least close to agreeing a fee.

vandaq Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 I think so. Really want this one to happen but my enthusiasm has kinda died out as I can`t see it happening. On the flip side of this is that some rumors have surfaced again and naming us, while I haven`t sen any other club really come in for him. I know Arsenal was mentioned some days ago, but they are always linked with players down there, and I don`t think he will fit in their. Cautious on this one....

LockStockVilla Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 (edited) Maybe this could be what's holding up Bentekes re-signing. If we make this signing as a statement of intent, he'll know we mean business. Imagine that if both happened in the same week. Mind you, I'm not looking into this too much Edited June 23, 2013 by LockStockVilla Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omariqy Posted June 23, 2013 Share Posted June 23, 2013 Oooooh Younes Belhanda...does it work? Agree with Richard, although I had my doubts at the beginning I think Villa are playing a good game and have offered the best they can and are waiting for Younes to realise that AVFC is the only choice for him.
