According to a report by A Bola, as relayed by Sport Witness, Pedro Goncalves is no longer the subject of interest from Aston Villa. The Villans have closely monitored the Sporting CP attacker for a long time. However, while the Primeira Liga giants aim to tie the Portuguese international to a new contract, the Villans have walked away from a possible move for the productive attacker.
Pedro Goncalves has been among the most productive attackers in the world since joining Sporting CP from Famalicao in August 2020. The Chaves native spent his formative years in his homeland and had short stints in Spain and England. However, he rose in prominence during his spell with Famalicao.
The 26-year-old has come leaps and bounds during his spell with Sporting CP, filling the void left by Bruno Fernandes’s departure in over half a decade ago. Pote has maintained his productivity levels this season despite struggling with injuries in the 2024/25 campaign.
The Portuguese international has contributed to 11 goals in 18 appearances in all competitions, finding the back of the net five times and providing six assists. Meanwhile, the Sporting CP attacker’s stock in the market has been high for a long time, with Aston Villa among his prospective suitors for the last few years.
Pedro Goncalves has been on Aston Villa’s radar for a long time.
