Not long ago, Villa announced the signing of Belgian international Onana, who stated in an interview that his national team teammate Tielemans and head coach Emery were reasons for his choice to join the club.
Onana said happily, “I feel great, I’m very happy to be here, and I can’t wait to start playing. The atmosphere here is conducive to the personal development of players. The team played some fantastic football last season and qualified for the Champions League. Head coach Emery is also one of the reasons that attracted me; he can help me improve myself.”
Belgian teammate Tielemans was also involved in convincing Onana: “He told me about the strengths of the club. I’ve known him from the national team, and I look forward to training with him every day. His experience will help me.”
