Desky: Villa is interested in Dortmund striker Bayer and is preparing to make an offer worth about £30 million

D Sky reporter Patrick Berger exclusively reported that Villa is interested in Dortmund's 22-year-old striker Bayer.

Villa has started negotiations with the players and is preparing to submit an initial offer worth about £30 million.

Dortmund is already aware of this situation, but for Villa, due to the restrictions of financial fair rules, players need to be sold first.

Bayer has rejected the proposal from Brentford, and his current contract with Dortmund until June 2029.

Last season, Bayer played 43 games in various competitions, contributing 9 goals and 5 assists, and Germany's turnaround is worth 25 million euros.
