Aston Villa are reportedly ready to make a move to sign an Everton star in the summer transfer window.
It wouldn't be the first time in recent years that Everton and Aston Villa have dealt with each other in the transfer market.
Everton recently signed Tim Iroegbunam from the Midlands club in a deal which saw Lewis Dobbin go the other way.
We've also seen Amadou Onana and Lucas Digne make the move from Everton to Aston Villa in recent years.
Aston Villa are preparing for a season in the Champions League, so they'll be looking to build a deeper squad for Unai Emery.
Strengthening in midfield could be Aston Villa's priority, with Onana suffering a serious knee injury and Youri Tielemans leaving the club.
