Leeds United are reportedly interested in signing Aston Villa midfielder Emiliano Buendia.
The 28-year-old is on the fringes of the Villans squad as they have evolved into a group capable of competing on the European stage.
Whilst Villa were pitting their wits against Paris Saint-Germain in the quarter-finals of the Champions League last term, Buendia was spending time on loan at Bayer Leverkusen.
The Argentine struggled to make a significant impact at BayArena, scoring just twice across 14 competitive appearances for the German club.
Since making the switch to the Second City from Norwich City in June 2021, Buendia has made 100 appearances for Villa, netting the net on 10 occasions.
