One of the images from the Rayo-Celta match was captured from the stands, where Monchi did not stop observing what was happening on the field. The cameras 'caught' the sports director of Aston Villa, who is looking for reinforcements in the winter transfer market, and two names are linked to the right flank that played in Vallecas on Friday, one from each team.

One of them is Óscar Mingueza. It is rumored that the English club could pay around 20 million for the Celta player, who has been capped by Spain this season. The other player that Monchi could be observing is Andrei Ratiu. Both are having a standout season.

??? Aston Villa and Oscar Mingueza, deal on… and #AVFC director Monchi in attendance at Rayo-Celta tonight. https://t.co/aJ1qahK8T4 pic.twitter.com/xMSqbIQBJl
