Aston Villa target Monchi has held talks with Sevilla's board of directors about his future.

The transfer guru is the man Villa want to bring to the Midlands to work with boss Unai Emery.

Monchi is known for his ability to wheel and deal on a lower budget compared to most teams in their position.

While he was not very successful at Roma, Villa believe he can replicate his Sevilla success at Villa Park.

Per Birmingham Live, he held talks with Sevilla about possibly leaving the club.

A decision about his future is expected to come in the coming days, as Villa push to finalize his appointment.
