Aston Villa head coach Unai Emery said he is counting on striker John Duran in the new season.
"He returns next week after playing for Colombia against Argentina in the Copa America final. He has a lot of potential and I have always been close to him, helping him adapt in Europe, in the EPL.
Now he's back and I'll work with him again like I did last year, trying to gradually make him better. Of course, he is capable of reaching his potential, but we will continue to work with him as before because he is very demanding," the Birmingham Mail quoted Emery as saying.
Earlier, the player was actively interested in London's West Ham and Chelsea.
