Villa set to miss out on Wolfsburg winger Donkor
According to a report in the Birmingham Mail, Aston Villa are set to miss out on Wolfsburg winger Anton Donkor as he is moving ever closer to a loan move to Premier League side Everton.
The 19-year-old was on Villa’s radar and they had even had a couple of discussions with his agent.
However, interest from Everton has naturally peaked his interest, and he is expected to have talks about a temporary move to Goodison Park at some point later this week.
Donkor has yet to make a first-team appearance for Wolfsburg, but he has been showing off his talent for the under-age groups in Germany. He is highly rated and is even regarded as one of the top young talents in Germany.
Earlier on this month, he had confirmed that Villa were interested in him and that a loan to England could only be a good thing. However, there were a number of other clubs who were also interested, and it now looks highly likely that he will be spending some time at Merseyside and not in the Midlands.
