Full story: Daily Express

What’s the story? Villa are quietly doing some really good transfer business at the moment and signing these two would continue that. Luna has been in and out of the Sevilla team but is well thought of and Helenius is a big physical striker with goals in Denmark.Does it make sense? Yes. They need a left back, Joe Bennett is not a Premier League standard player, and may need an imposing presence up front to replace Christian BentekeIs the price right? Luna would be about £1m and Helenius £4m. It’s a good range for Villa to be buying in.Will it happen? 8/10 – These are very Villa type signings and they don’t tend to get linked with players they’re not talking to.
