Reasons why Emi Buendia prefers Aston Villa over Arsenal revealed.
Football Insider have revealed two reasons as to why Emiliano Buendia has chosen to move to Aston Villa over Arsenal.
Both clubs seemed to be tight in the race for the Norwich City fellow during the week, with the two sides believed to be lodging big-money bids. However, Saturday seemed to mark the turning point in Villa’s favor.
Reliable reporter Charles Watts maintained that Villa moved ahead of the Gunners in the race for the Argentine, with David Ornstein maintaining hours later that personal terms have been agreed and a medical has been completed.
An up-front fee of £33m was accepted upon by the two clubs with the transfer expected to reach £40m after the add-ons.
According to Football Insider, Buendia was influenced by Villa’s “huge” ambition, along with their strategies to strengthen this summer and in the coming years.
Buendia now becomes Villa’s club-record signing, surpassing Ollie Watkins’ £30.6m arrival from Brentford last year.

The Argentine winger scored 15 goals and recorded 17 assists last summer for the Canaries, so this arrangement could turn out to be massive for Villa.
They wanted two wide forwards this summer, and it seems as if they will be getting a hugely creative one in Buendia quite early in the window.
The 24-year-old created 83 chances in his only full season in the Premier League. That came during 2019/20, when only Trent Alexander-Arnold, Jack Grealish, and Kevin De Bruyne managed more in that campaign across the whole top-flight.
On that reason, Buendia and Grealish playing alongside each other next season could be a mouth-watering sight at Villa Park.
