Aston Villa outcast set for Serie A move
Aston Villa outcast Joleon Lescott could be on his way to the Italian top flight with Pescara close on a move for the defender.
Di Marzio reports that the former Manchester City defender is on his way to the Serie A outfit on Twitter this afternoon.
It has been reported all window that Lescott was not in Roberto Di Matteo’s plans and he would be allowed to leave on a free transfer.
Last week he was linked with a move to Greece with AEK Athens and Olympiacos looking to make a move for the former England man, but now seemingly he will be off to Italy.
The defender joined the Midlands side last summer from West Bromwich Albion but has struggled for any form since the move.
He has had the Villa Park faithful on his back for some time after tweeting a picture of a car moments after a 6-0 drubbing to Liverpool during the Villans doomed Premier League campaign.
