Aston Villa poised to make offer for French goalkeeper to succeed Emiliano Martinez

Aston Villa poised to make offer for French goalkeeper to succeed Emiliano Martinez

Aston Villa are preparing to make a bid for Lens goalkeeper Robin Risser, who has been on the team's radar for several months. Risser, 21, has only been with Lens for one season, having joined from Strasbourg for €3m last summer. Despite Lens's desire to retain the young goalkeeper, Villa are set to submit an offer. Risser's stock has risen significantly after an impressive season in Ligue 1.
