Aston Villa has taken an important step in their sports planning by securing the signing of Andrés García, the right-back from Levante, a team that competes in the Spanish second division. Under the guidance of Unai Emery, the English club ensures a key addition to strengthen their squad in the second half of the season.

The deal is sealed for a fee of 7 million euros upfront, with the possibility of adding 2.25 million in variables and 15% of a future player sale. García, who has been one of Levante's standout performers this season, arrives at Villa Park to provide defensive solidity and attacking impetus from the flank.

A reinforcement requested by Unai Emery

With a record of 3 goals and 3 assists in 23 games, the 22-year-old Spaniard has showcased his ability to contribute both defensively and offensively. These attributes make him an ideal choice for Emery's tactics, aiming for increased width on the wings.

Aston Villa had explored other options to reinforce this position, considering names like Óscar Mingueza, Andrei Ratiu, and Marc Pubill. However, the selection of Andrés García reflects the coaching staff's confidence in his potential to adapt to the pace of the Premier League and establish himself as a key figure in the team.

García's arrival marks a significant step in Aston Villa's strategy to climb the ranks in the English league and compete with greater ambition in all competitions. His inclusion promises to be a forward-looking bet for Emery's project.
