No idea why you think aluminium foil would be the right thing to use
here, but the usual glue is rabbit skin glue. It's like hide glue,
but more flexible when set.

If you want to cut corners, use the cold hide glue in a tube from
Titebond.

And I'd use Evo-stik 528 before I used PVA. PVA gives a poor bond on
metals.
