Aston Villa prepares loan offer for Jonathan David

Aston Villa is preparing an official offer to sign Canadian striker Jonathan David from Juventus. The proposed deal is structured as a loan with an obligation to purchase once certain conditions are met.

David, who joined Juventus as a free agent following a successful stint at Lille, has struggled to meet expectations in Italy. During his time in Turin, he recorded 46 appearances and scored 8 goals, including 6 in league play. His recent exclusion from the friendly match against Palermo suggests he is no longer central to the team's tactical plans under manager Luciano Spalletti.

While David had previously expressed a desire to stay in Italy, the move to the Premier League could become a viable path if the financial terms of the Aston Villa proposal are favorable to Juventus.
