Aston Villa have completed a major signing in the current summer transfer window, reaching a €35 million package agreement with OGC Nice for striker Evann Guessand. The deal between the two clubs is done, and the 23-year-old French forward is now set to travel to England to undergo his medical and sign the final documents.
Unai Emery has been eager to strengthen his attacking options ahead of the 2025/26 season, and Guessand’s arrival adds depth and firepower to Villa’s frontline. The talented striker impressed last season in Ligue 1 with his pace, technical ability, and eye for goal — characteristics that fit well with Emery’s tactical setup.
Villa fans will be excited to see what Guessand can bring to the Premier League as the club looks to build on a promising campaign and compete on multiple fronts this season.
