Aston Villa Intensifies Pursuit of Caen’s Young Talent Tidiam Gomis
Aston Villa has reportedly submitted an enhanced offer to SM Caen for their 18-year-old prodigy, Tidiam Gomis. The French U19 international has caught the eye of the Premier League club, who are keen to secure his services during the winter transfer window.
Gomis, whose contract with Caen is nearing its end, seems unlikely to remain with the club partially owned by football star Kylian Mbappé. His potential has attracted interest from several clubs looking to invest in his promising future.
Sources suggest that Villa is optimistic about their chances of acquiring Gomis following their improved bid. However, they face competition from German side RB Leipzig and an undisclosed French club, both of whom have also submitted offers to Caen.
The young talent has been a regular fixture in Caen’s lineup this season, participating in all 18 league matches for the Ligue 2 team. Despite his youth, Gomis has already made significant contributions, scoring two goals and providing two assists.
As the transfer saga unfolds, it remains to be seen which club will successfully secure the services of this rising star in French football.
