JAKARTA - Lucas Digne immediately left Everton and joined Aston Villa. The two clubs have reportedly reached a transfer agreement worth £25 million (IDR 490 billion) for the left-back.

Quoted from Sky Sports on Thursday, Everton will use Digne's transfer funds to sign winger Anwar El Ghazi from Aston Villa.

Aston Villa has been monitoring the situation of the 28-year-old Frenchman since he was rarely played this season by Toffees coach Rafael Benitez.

Villa is currently trying to strengthen Steven Gerrard's squad in the January transfer window.

They recently completed the transfer of Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona on loan, which includes a permanent option for £33m at the end of the season.

"Philippe Coutinho arrived at Bodymoor Heath on Tuesday afternoon to finalize his move to Aston Villa," the Midlands club said.

Villa added that the Brazil international 'went straight to the club's training complex after landing in Birmingham following a medical and obtaining a work permit.
