Aston Villa boss Unai Emery is targeting Olympique Marseille midfielder Matteo Guendouzi.

L'Equipe says Villa are in contact with OM for the France international.

Emery worked with Guendouzi at Arsenal and is keen on a reunion.

The Villa manager has made the midfielder's signing a priority for the winter market.

And OM are prepared to sell after welcoming Ruslan Malinovskyi from Atalanta this week.
