# Aston Villa: Fans react to Denis Zakaria update

**[Aston Villa](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/aston-villa-transfer-rumours/villa-fans-want-denis-zakaria/) and [Manchester United](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-denis-zakaria-transfer-22696987) have both been linked with a move for Borussia Monchengladbach midfielder Denis Zakaria.**

And, according to [Goal](https://www.goal.com/en-gb), relayed by [The AVFC Faithful](https://twitter.com/AVFCFaithful_/status/1481192853288198147), the Switzerland international could leave for as little as €6m (£5m) this month, with a number of Villa fans responding to the update on social media.

Zakaria, valued at £24.3m by [Transfermarkt](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/denis-zakaria/profil/spieler/334526), has [six months](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/denis-zakaria/profil/spieler/334526) remaining on his deal with Monchengladbach, meaning he could pen a pre-contract agreement with a Premier League side right now ahead of a summer move.

However, Johan Lange and co appear to be [after a holding midfielder](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/aston-villa-transfer-rumours/yves-bissouma-villa-transfer-interest/) immediately with Marvelous Nakamba sidelined, and [reports](https://www.manchestereveningnews.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/manchester-united-denis-zakaria-transfer-22696987) have suggested Zakaria could be available due to his precarious contract situation.

The 25-year-old has made [16](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/denis-zakaria/leistungsdaten/spieler/334526) appearances this season, taking his Monchengladbach tally to [144](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/denis-zakaria/leistungsdaten/spieler/334526), but it seems as if he may not hit the 150 mark following the recent update.
