Aston Villa sign Marco Asensio on loan from PSG until season end

Aston Villa have announced the signing of Paris Saint-Germain forward Marco Asensio on a loan deal until the end of the season.

Sources have told ESPN that the deal does not include an option to make the move permanent

The move offers the 29-year-old the chance to kickstart his career after a forgettable 18-month spell in Paris, where he made 47 appearances and scored seven goals.

Asensio joined PSG in 2023 after a nine years at Real Madrid and will bolster Villa’s squad as they look to progress in the Champions League and secure European football for next season.

Villa chief Monchi had said Asensio fit the profile Unai Emery wanted and was a top target for the club in the transfer window.

Asensio is the second forward to leave PSG on loan in this window, with Randal Kolo Muani joining Juventus until the end of the season.

The Spaniard will linkup with Marcus Rashford at Villa after the Manchester United forward joined Emery’s team on Sunday. Fellow attacker Donyell Malen also joined Villa earlier in the transfer window, while Jhon Durán left for Saudi Pro League club Al Nassr.
