As: Villa is interested in striker Rodriguez, Chelsea, Manchester United and Leipzig are also paying attention to him
19-year-old Jesus Rodriguez made his mark in the 2024-2025 La Liga season and became a highly anticipated star.
According to the Ass, the talented Betis youth training player has attracted the attention of the Premier League Aston Villa club and is seen as a potential option to strengthen the team's attack power. Rodriguez successfully scored into the first team this season and gained a foothold in Pellegrini's roster, making 32 appearances, including 22 starts, contributing 3 goals and 1 assist.
A few months ago, Betis renewed his contract with Rodriguez until 2029, with a contract containing a termination clause of about 35 million euros. If a quote is received, the transfer fee may rise to 50 million euros. In addition to his recent interest from Villa Park, he has previously been linked to Chelsea and Manchester United, and several teams in Serie A and recently RB Leipzig have also expressed interest in him.
Rodriguez expressed his desire to "win a championship for Betis" in an interview with El Chiringuito, but was also open to the possibilities of the future. Currently, as a member of the Spanish U21, Rodriguez is participating in the U21 European Championship.
Aston Villa, after Rashford and Asensio return to their respective clubs after loan periods expire, the sports director must strengthen the team's offensive line before next season. Currently, Emery only has Watkins, Leon Bailey and Mullen.
