Aston Villa are leading the race to sign Parma goalkeeper Zion Suzuki after his transfer to Paris Saint-Germain collapsed on Saturday.
PSG had agreed a €35 million (£30m) deal with Parma for Suzuki and the Japan international was due to travel to Paris on Saturday to undergo a medical and finalise his move to Luis Enrique’s side.
However, RMC Sport reports that the commission demanded by Suzuki’s agents at the last minute was deemed too high by PSG’s hierarchy, who then opted to pull out of the deal.
The report adds that barring any unforeseen circumstances, Suzuki will not be joining PSG this summer.
However, in an interview with 365 Scores last month, Villa’s director of football operations, Damian Vidagany, insisted that the Argentina international would not leave the club.
‘The goalkeeper’s future is settled, he is staying with us, and we have no intention of letting him go this summer,’ Vidagany said.
‘The team needs his efforts and extensive experience, and he is a very important element in our project for next season.
‘All the news published by the media about his departure to Juventus does not reflect the club’s true position.
‘Martinez is a very important player for us, and we expect him to continue delivering his outstanding performances alongside his teammates.’
