ASTON VILLA have announced a deal to sign Sevilla centre-back Diego Carlos.
The club has confirmed an agreement has been reached over a transfer fee with Fabrizio Romano revealing Carlos has agreed a contract.
The defender, 24, is set to be unveiled as Villa’s third summer arrival following the capture of Boubacar Kamara and the permanent signing of Philippe Coutinho.
Carlos is now set to undergo a medical and will officially be a Villa player if he passes fit.
The Villans are conducting their transfer business early and are clearly determined to improve on their 14th-placed finish this season.
They will likely be pleased to land Carlos after he attracted the attention of several clubs, most notably Newcastle.
Toon were desperate to sign him in January but Sevilla refused to budge, even rejecting offers in the region of £50million.
