Very good: Pundit believes Aston Villa have made a superior signing than Mateo Kovacic.’

Who has been the most notable summer signing?

That’s a question you’ll hear a lot in the coming days, and in all honesty, we won’t have a solid answer until the end of the season.

Of course, it doesn’t stop fans and analysts from arguing the subject before the ball has ever been kicked, and speaking on Premier League Productions, Clinton Morrison has made an early decision for summer signing.

Morrison says that he was tempted to choose Mateo Kovacic after his arrival at Man City, but, ultimately, he believes that Moussa Diaby to Aston Villa may well be the best deal any team does this window.

Signing of the summer

Morrison gave his verdict on Diaby.

“The player, it’s a difficult one. I could’ve said Kovacic because I love him at Man City, but I’m going to go with Diaby at Aston Villa, he’s the one I said to watch. He can score goals, he has pace and he’s been a very good signing from Bayer Leverkusen,” Morrison said.

Looking bright

Whether or not Diaby proves to be the signing of the summer remains to be seen, but one thing is for sure, he’s looking very bright already.

As Morrison says, he has electric pace and an eye for goal, and he’s certainly one to watch for the remainder of the season.

Aston Villa have made some terrific acquisitions this summer, including Nicolo Zaniolo, Pau Torres, and Youri Tielemans, but as Morrison suggests, Diaby may be the finest of the bunch.
