Aston Villa are attempting to hijack Newcastle United’s stalling £51.5 million move for Freiburg and Switzerland midfielder Johan Manzambi.

Newcastle United face potential heartbreak in the transfer market as Premier League rivals Aston Villa move to intercept their pursuit of Swiss midfielder Johan Manzambi.

The Magpies had previously negotiated a £51.5 million package with Bundesliga side Freiburg for the twenty-year-old World Cup breakout star. However, delays in finalizing personal terms have allowed Villa to closely monitor the developing situation.

Unai Emery’s side is aggressively tracking the versatile midfielder following a severe knee injury to Amadou Onana. The decision now rests entirely with Manzambi, who impressed heavily during Switzerland’s international campaign this summer.

This late intervention echoes a recent blow for Newcastle, who previously lost out on Spanish forward Victor Munoz to Liverpool.
