Durán’s Impressive Season

Durán has had an impressive season with Aston Villa, scoring 12 times in 28 appearances, despite starting only four Premier League games. His performances have caught the attention of several top clubs, including Arsenal and Chelsea, but Al-Nassr’s financial package appears to be the most attractive.
