8 Transfers Who Could Replace Christian Benteke at Aston Villa

5. Breel Embolo

Aged just 18, FC Basel's Breel Embolo is an exciting talent in Swiss football and If Villa do decide to shell out their Benteke cash on a exciting prospect, the striker could fit the bill. Embolo recorded 17 goals and 13 assists last season in all competitions and became the sixth youngest goalscorer in Champions League history when he netted against PFC Ludogorets Razgrad. As a top prospect in European football he won't be cheap, and Villa would probably have to pay at least £10 million to bring the forward to the Midlands.
