Aston Villa is delighted to announce the completion of signing Italy midfielder Nicolo Zaniolo from Turkish Super League champions  Galatasaray on loan in this summer transfer.

Zaniolo, 24, is the Premier League club's fourth signing since the end of last season. The deal reportedly involves an option for Villa to make the move permanent.

The Premier League side will pay a temporary transfer fee of €5 million ($5.4 million) and a conditional bonus of a maximum €1.3 million, the statement added.

The future transfer fee was announced to be €22.5 million, with conditional bonuses of €15.5 million.

In addition, in case of a transfer to another club in the future, 10% of the sales profit will be paid to Galatasaray.

Zaniolo, who joined Galatasaray from Roma in February, helped the Istanbul powerhouse to bag the 2022-23 Turkish Super Lig title.

Zaniolo spent five years with Roma and scored the winning goal in their Europa Conference League final success in 2022.

Zaniolo, who has 13 caps for Italy, joins Pau Torres, Youri Tielemans, and Moussa Diaby as new faces in Unai Emery's squad.

Villa were thrashed 5-1 at Newcastle in their Premier League opener last weekend and host Everton in their second game on Sunday.
