Marco Asensio has been loaned to Aston Villa from Paris Saint-Germain, the Ligue 1 winners.
On Monday, Villa’s website announced the former Real Madrid player’s signing.
“Aston Villa is delighted to announce the loan signing of three-time Champions League winner Marco Asensio from Paris Saint-Germain,” the Midlands club announced.
“A 38-cap Spanish international, Asensio joins Villa until the end of the 2024/25 season.
“He has enjoyed a glittering career, lifting European titles with Real Madrid as well as domestic league titles and domestic cups in France and in Spain.
“Comfortable playing on the wing as well as in an attacking midfield role, he has also starred on the international stage, helping Spain win the UEFA Nations League in 2023.
“Welcome, Marco! .”
After Marcus Rashford left Manchester United to join Villa on loan, Asensio is the most recent player to join the team.
Asensio got two goals and four assists in 12 Ligue 1 appearances this season before leaving PSG.
