ASTON VILLA HAVE recalled Finn Azaz from his season-long loan at Plymouth Argyle, paving the way for a reported move to Middlesbrough.
The Athletic reported on Wednesday that the Ireland underage international is set to move to the Riverside in a £2.5 million (€2.9 million) deal.
Azaz — who won his only Irish U21 cap in 2022 — was sent out on loan to Plymouth for the 2022/23 season, where he helped them to earn promotion from League One to the Championship.
After agreeing a new deal with Villa last summer, the 23-year-old remained on loan at Plymouth and caught the eye with seven goals so far this season — including a superb volley in Monday’s 3-3 draw with Watford.
