Aston Villa eyes Alejandro Garnacho and Nicolas Jackson in transfer window

Aston Villa are reported to be actively pursuing two high‑profile forwards this summer. The club have been linked with 21‑year‑old Argentine winger Alejandro Garnacho, who currently plays for Manchester United. Reports suggest Villa see his pace‑driven profile as a fit for their attacking ambitions, while United are likely to demand a substantial fee for the youngster.

In a separate push, Villa manager Unai Emery is reportedly urging the club to sign Chelsea striker Nicolas Jackson. The Senegal international, contracted to Chelsea until 2033, is described as a tactical priority for Emery, who previously helped launch Jackson’s career at Villarreal. Villa are said to be considering both a permanent deal and a possible loan, with the manager emphasizing the striker’s versatility and goal threat.

Both pursuits underline Villa’s intent to strengthen their frontline under Emery’s guidance ahead of the upcoming season.
