Villarreal to net further €8m as discarded forward edges closer to Premier League return

Villarreal are poised to complete the sale of Filip Jorgensen to Chelsea, and the Danish goalkeeper won’t be the only player to swap Vila-Real for the Premier League. Ben Brereton Diaz is also set to make a move in the next few days.

Brereton Diaz joined Villarreal last summer as a free agent, but he has struggled to establish himself at the Ceramica. He went on loan to Sheffield United in January, and he impressed, which has led to a return to the Premier League being possible.

As per MD, Southampton have agreed a deal to sign Brereton Diaz for €8m. The Chilean attacker is expected to make the move very soon.

Villarreal are believed to be making in the region of €25m from the Jorgensen, and now coupled with this, they will net €33m in the coming days. That’s good money that can be used to improve Marcelino Garcia Toral’s squad for the upcoming season.
