Zion Suzuki, first choice at Aston Villa after leaving Parma
Parma banked over 30 million for the Japanese keeper, Juventus wanted him, and he has displaced Dibu Martinez under Unai Emery.
Zion Suzuki has become Aston Villa's first-choice goalkeeper. The Japanese keeper left Parma and Serie A last summer in a deal that brought more than 30 million euros to the Ducal club, which turned to the young Daffara as his replacement. According to TuttoMercatoWeb, Juventus had been tracking him for a long time, even attempting a joint move with PSG that would have sent him on loan to Turin.
Unai Emery had to replace Dibu Martinez, one of the best in the position, and the 2002-born keeper has not flinched. He has played in the Champions League and in the league, and his only absence was the 3-0 EFL Cup defeat to Bournemouth.
All parties appear satisfied: Parma strengthened its finances, Aston Villa got one of the most promising emerging keepers, and Juventus turned to Vicario, who is no longer a problem for the Bianconeri.
