Villa are among six Premier League clubs following the 21-year-old Leipzig and Norway winger, BILD reported after Arsenal sent a delegation to watch him in Leipzig's 3-2 Champions League defeat by Manchester City; Arsenal are described as the most persistent suitors, with Liverpool, Tottenham, Newcastle, and Crystal Palace also named. Leipzig do not want to sell: a January move is ruled out short of an exceptional offer, and they value him at up to €80m for next summer. Nusa has six goals and eight assists this season and is under contract until 2029.
