Aston Villa are interested in signing Marcus Tavernier this summer.
According to the Northern Echo, the young winger is a target for Dean Smith’s side.
It will be interesting to see if the newly promoted side manages to agree on a deal with Middlesbrough.
Tavernier is highly rated at the Riverside club and they might not want to lose him just yet.
As for Aston Villa, they could certainly use someone like Tavernier next season. With Adomah gone, Villa will need depth in the wide areas.

The likes of Bayer Leverkusen and Watford are interested in the player as well.

All those saying “don’t do a fulham”, remember that we’d have to spend a big sum just to keep hold of our loanees. I think we’re entitled to go in the transfer market pretty hard to get back the squad we had, plus some depth with PL quality.
