Rodrigo De Paul From Udinese, best midfielder in Italy. Leeds were after him, he is excellent.
Hopefully not a storm in a tea cup

I fancied Lynsey De Paul a few seasons ago, but the moment has passed.

Miss De Paul was lovely and lusted after by people of a certain age. I had forgotten about her. Just checked, and she died in 2014 at 66. Had a string of A-list boyfriends but never married.

To be taken with a huge pinch of salt as
(a) FootballInsider is hardly a reliable source and
(b) The club has NDAs in place so I'd guess this in't s likely to be public knowledge

but FootballInsider reckons we'll be in for 2 wide forward in the summer:
https://www.footballinsider247.com/sources-aston-villa-set-sights-on-signing-two-forwards-as-big-money-summer-plan-revealed/

Quote
A Villa source has told Football Insider that a key area identified for reinforcements is in attack and the recruitment team are working on identifying potential targets.

The plan is to sign two senior forwards who can play out wide, either side of the main striker, in Dean Smith’s favoured 4-2-3-1 formation.

The rest of the article is filler guff.

Weren't 'football insider' saying we were going to sack Dean Smith and replace him with Gerrard a week ago? Now we're buying players to suit his tactics.. It's almost as if they're making it up as they go along..

2 attacking wide players seems possible but 1 seems more credible. Jack aside, the wide players have been very hit and miss and now Trezeguet is out for a long time. Philogene-Bidace is coming through but presumably he'll go out on loan next season.

"two senior forwards who can play out wide, either side of the main striker, in Dean Smith’s favoured 4-2-3-1 formation" - even that's a contradiction: if they were either side of the main striker, the set-up with be 4-3-3 or 4-1-2-3 (not 4-2-3-1).
