Adresseavisen, which has a number of spies on Lerkendal, writes today that Rosenborg talent Sverre Nypan is on his way to the Premier League and that the 18-year-old is super close to signing with Aston Villa.
It is surprising considering that Nypan grew up as a Manchester United fan, has the same agent as Erling Braut Haaland and has long been rumored to Arsenal where captain Martin Ødegaard had the job of persuasion.

Having said all that, under the leadership of Unai Emery, Sverre Nypan couldn’t wish for a better club.
“Aston Villa are working to secure a deal with Sverre Nypan from Rosenborg. He is wanted by Arsenal and Girona, but Villa feel confident that the 18-year-old wants to go to them. They still have to agree on a transfer fee and personal terms. It has not been decided, but they are trying to finalize the deal,” writes the Athletic journalist Ornstein in social media
At the same time, another of Rosenborg’s talents has made a name for himself. In yesterday’s first round in the Norwegian Championship, RBK won 11 – 1 over Ringdal. Noah Holm made history when he scored seven goals against Rindal in the cup. No Rosenborg player has scored more in one and the same game before.
Adresseavisen writes behind a paywall that they have concrete information that Aston Villa are in the driver’s seat about Nypan’s signature and an agreement is approaching. The deal could be in place as early as April.
Some fans believe that Sverre Nypan should choose a bigger club than Aston Villa, but as we have been saying sporten.com for quite some time. The Birmingham club is really on the rise. – After all, they are in the Champions League. – They play the second leg against Paris Saint-Germain in a few hours at Villa Park.
Agent Rafaela Pimenta is steering with a steady hand towards the Premier League and Aston Villa. – And if we are to bet, we think she will manage to squeeze out more than 15 million euros, which has been what everyone has been talking about as a price.
