Despite interest from Bayern Munich, Arsenal and Barcelona, Villa have acquired the signature of the 22-year-old's services in what is a huge deal for the club.
This interest from top clubs did not stop there however as Man United were reportedly willing to match Aston Villa's £50m offer with higher financial terms in what would have been a controversial deal.
Belgian news outlet Het Nieuwsblad claimed the deal is "as good as complete" despite United’s interest with Villa’s Champions League qualification most likely being a big talking point.
Onana is set to become Aston Villa's record signing after agreeing a five-year-deal with Everton also set to receive an initial £45m plus £5m in bonuses and ten per cent of any future sale.
United have already moved on from Onana however with the club reportedly having agreed personal terms with Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Manuel Ugarte.
