Speaking on Cadena SER, Monchi said: "Is Joao Felix of interest to Aston Villa? Joao has been a small object of desire for Emery, who trusts in his talent.
"Unai is a specialist in recovering players who were considered lost."
He also revealed: "A month before I arrived, Aston Villa tried to sign Marco Asensio, and for Joao Felix we have tried in all markets."
