Multiple outlets in Italy and the UK are reporting that Aston Villa have wrapped up a deal with Parma for the transfer of Japan international goalkeeper Zion Suzuki.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Done deal: Suzuki set to join Aston Villa from Parma<\/p>\n

Villa have agreed to match the transfer fee that Paris Saint-Germain had been prepared to pay for Suzuki until that deal collapsed on Saturday. The 23-year-old is now heading for the Premier League instead at a cost of \u20ac30m plus up to \u20ac5m in bonuses.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Suzuki had been on the verge of joining PSG, with reports that he could then return to Serie A to play for Juventus on loan in 2026-27, but that deal collapsed on Saturday amidst reports that the player\u2019s agents had sought last-minute commission fees<\/a> in the region of \u20ac5m.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He is now set to join Aston Villa instead on a five-year contract according to reports from The Athletic\u2019s David Ornstein<\/a>.\u00a0<\/p>\n

This could still be good news for Juventus, as Suzuki is likely to become Aston Villa\u2019s immediate first-choice, which should then make Emilliano Martinez available for transfer.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s reports claim that Juventus have recently submitted a new offer in an attempt to sign Martinez from Aston Villa<\/a> at \u20ac7m plus \u20ac3m in bonuses.\u00a0<\/p>\n
