Aston Villa winger Trezeguet is the subject of interest from Besiktas, according to Turkish outlet Fotomac.

The 25-year-old joined Dean Smith's side from Turkish Super Lig club Kasimpasa during the summer of 2019, but it seems as though he could be heading back to that league after just one season away.

Besiktas had been looking to bring him in, and their cause has been helped by Trezeguet's compatriot Mohamed Elneny, who joined the Turkish giants on loan this season.

The Arsenal midfielder reportedly called for his national teammate to make the move, having struggled to make his mark in England, having also been a Besiktas target last summer.

Trezeguet's time at Villa may not gone quite how he or the club would have hoped for so far, but this is still his first season with the club, in which he scored the goal that got them to Wembley.

With the above in mind, FFC writers have given their verdicts on whether Villa should allow him to leave.

"Smith would be foolish to let go of Trezeguet just a season after he arrived at the club. That, simply put, is nowhere near the amount of time needed for a player to settle into English football, let alone for a side that are in a relegation dogfight. It would be worth far more of Villa's time and money to keep him at the club, and giving him at least another year to show what he is actually capable of.

"Yes, his performances haven't been quite up to scratch or what Villa may have hoped for with only four goals this season, but very few players hit the ground running within the first few months of a move abroad. Rash decisions never tend to work out well, and jumping to the conclusion of cutting your losses on someone like Trezeguet would fall into that category."

"Trezeguet is just one of a few Aston Villa players who have proved that the club got their recruitment all wrong last summer.

"While you probably can afford to bring in some 'flair' style players without any Premier League experience, the Midlands outfit have really lacked that experience during their return to the top flight, and they could pay the ultimate price when the 2019/20 season eventually resumes given their current 19th position in the standings.

"Going back to Trezeguet, the Egypt international would have been one of their biggest hopes in the final third this term, but he has just four goals and three assists in 31 appearances in all competitions to date.

"Smith would've expected more from the attacker, and while you can make all of the excuses in the world such as it being his debut year in England, he is one of a number of Villa players who hasn't been up to scratch and hasn't shown that he can offer them something in the top flight next season if they do retain their status.

"To be truthful it is an investment that has ultimately backfired, and he must go whether they stay up or not."

"It certainly hasn't been a fantastic campaign for Trezeguet, with just three goals and two assists in 24 league games, but he hasn't been helped by Smith at all. Normally a left-winger, the Egypt international has played more games on the opposite flank as Smith attempts to fit Jack Grealish into the side.

"In this case, Grealish has been a hindrance, as his obvious quality means everyone else has to fit in around him. With the rumours around the 24-year-old's future continuing to increase, it may be worth Villa keeping ahold of Trezeguet next season and giving him a full campaign in his preferred position. It may be just what the doctor ordered."

"The answer to this dilemma depends completely on what division Villa find themselves in next season. If they stay up then they should let Trezeguet go, as their squad has simply not shown enough quality this season, which is reflected in their league position. If they somehow manage to get out of the relegation zone, Villa will need to bring in higher quality players if they want to reach safety a second time, and the Egyptian is one of the disposable players who can be sacrificed to raise funds and help that happen.

"However, Villa should keep the 25-year-old if they are relegated, as it could be the perfect opportunity for him to thrive. Playing at a lesser level is an obvious help, while there is also the likelihood that he would take on more of a leading role in the team, as it is hard to envision Grealish and John McGinn staying in the Championship. He could still prove to come into his own at that level and become an asset as they look to get back into the big time."
