Aston Villa has made a significant addition to their squad with the signing of Genoa midfielder Morten Frendrup for a reported £21 million. The Danish international joins the Premier League side after a standout season in Serie B, where his performances have drawn considerable attention from top clubs.
Frendrup, 23, is known for his impressive midfield versatility, strong defensive capabilities, and exceptional ball distribution. His ability to control the tempo of the game and contribute both defensively and offensively made him an attractive prospect for Villa’s manager, Unai Emery, who is keen to strengthen his squad ahead of the new season.
The move reflects Villa’s ambition to bolster their midfield options and compete more robustly in the Premier League. Frendrup’s arrival is expected to bring additional depth to Villa’s midfield, providing a solid foundation and offering tactical flexibility.
Genoa, while parting with a key player, will benefit from the substantial transfer fee, which will likely be reinvested into strengthening their squad for the upcoming season. This transfer marks a significant step for Frendrup, who will now have the opportunity to showcase his talents on one of the biggest stages in European football.
