Aston Villa have completed the signings of left-back Matteo Ruggeri from Atlético Madrid and goalkeeper Zion Suzuki from Parma.
Ruggeri joins following the departure of Lucas Digne to Paris Saint-Germain, who played a key role in the same position for Villa across four seasons.
The Italy international only joined Atlético last year on a five-year deal.
Ruggeri made 26 appearances for Atlético in La Liga last season and 15 in the Champions League, where they reached the semifinal but lost to Arsenal.

Villa are seeking to strengthen their squad as they prepare for a Champions League campaign and following the departure of key players from the club, including Morgan Rogers, Youri Tielemans and Digne.
Ruggeri is the newest recruit for the Villains, joining Johan Manzambi, João Gomes and Alejandro Garnacho, who is on an initial loan from Chelsea.
