Galatasaray defender Christian Luyindama prefers Aston Villa move?

Aston Villa have reportedly emerged as the most likely destination for Galatasaray defender Christian Luyindama.

While the centre-back has only spent 15 months with the Turkish giants, it appears likely that he will move to another club during the next transfer window.

At a time when Galatasaray are attempting to extend his contract past 2022, West Ham United and Wolverhampton Wanderers have been linked with the 26-year-old.

However, according to Fotomac, Luyindama would prefer to link up with Villa, who also hold an interest in his signature.

Luyindama may potentially cost in the region of £11m, meaning that any deal is dependent on Villa retaining their place in the Premier League.

Although the player has missed a large portion of the season due to injury, he did help Galatasaray concede just one goal in each of their home Champions League fixtures with Real Madrid and Paris Saint-Germain earlier this campaign.
