# Our new goalkeeper in 60 seconds

Aston Villa have confirmed the signing of Hellas Verona goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini this afternoon in a move which could signal the end of Brad Guzan’s days at Villa Park.

But who is Pierluigi Gollini? The guys at The Villa View have done a video of Matt Lynch telling you all you need to know about Aston Villa’s new goalkeeper in the time it takes him to make a cup of tea. It is definitely worth a watch.

The 21 year old hadn’t spent long back in Italy having only made the move back to his home country after Manchester United released him in 2014.

It is Roberto Di Matteo’s second signing since taking over as Aston Villa boss and it marks the second signing under the new ownership of Chinese businessman Dr Tony Xia.

What do you make of the new signing?
