The Frenchman impressed at Bayer Leverkusen and has started brightly in English football as well, with Romano admitting he’s surprised at how well he’s settled in, praising it as a superb piece of business by Villa, and in particular by manager Unai Emery as they saw off competition from Saudi clubs.
Writing in his exclusive CaughtOffside column, Romano accepted that names like Arsenal’s Declan Rice and Liverpool’s Dominik Szoboszlai were also looking like some of the best signings, though he feels their strong form for their new clubs comes as less of a surprise.
“While I think Rice is undoubtedly one of the signings of the summer, I was expecting players like him and Dominik Szoboszlai to reach a high level, but to be honest I have perhaps been most impressed by Moussa Diaby’s start at Aston Villa,” Romano said.
