Aston Villa have rekindled their pursuit of Colombian striker Kevin Viveros, currently at Athletico Paranaense. Reports indicate that Villa could consider an offer over €20m (£17.4m) during their next transfer effort. However, Athletico are demanding more than €30m (£26m), leaving a €10m gap between clubs. Viveros has performed well, netting 19 goals in 27 league appearances, and has recently received his first call-up to the Colombian national team. Villa must assess whether to bridge this gap as discussions continue without an official bid.
