#3 Aston Villa keen to take Tuanzebe on loan

Tuanzebe (R) impressed while on loan at Aston Villa last season

Aston Villa are reportedly interested in taking Axel Tuanzebe on loan once again, but are willing to be patient over a deal. Villa have already completed a £20m transfer of Tyrone Mings from Bournemouth, and are hopeful they can add Tuanzebe in their defense. The Telegraph reports that Aston Villa Manager Dean Smith is keen to add at least 3 more players to his team and is hopeful of taking Tuanzebe back to Villa Park.

The English youngster caught the eye while on loan at Villa last season and was so impressive that Solskjaer has made him a part of the pre-season squad. The Norwegian could be tempted to make Tuanzebe a part of his squad next season, if he manages to continue his good run into the pre-season.

Villa, however, are willing to wait for a decision on the 21-year-old and if United are willing to send him out on loan again, they shall come back with another loan offer.
