Aston Villa FC Rumours

12 Jan 2024 14:27:57
Apparently Saudi club Al-Hilal have formally made contact over the signing of Digne. If he's let go, I hope we've got a replacement in the pipeline or we're going to find ourselves short at the back with all the upcoming fixtures 🤔

Coutinho loan could be cut short inter miami want him

05 Jan 2024 23:57:22
Currently linked with Timo Werner again, wouldn't be a bad signing as he's good at holding the ball up, and can finish well (when supplied well) it would also give Ollie the free will to continue to run in behind and really tear up defences. Also been linked with Eric Dier, Could, Paulinho, Nico Williams, Tammy Abrahams. Truth is too many rumoured links, not enough facts and at this rate we'll be linked with all 15000 players worldwide

05 Jan 2024 21:30:29
We been linked with Ronnie Edwards of Posh for 4.5 million with a sell on clause buy him and send him back on loan for the rest of the season

05 Jan 2024 00:09:12
I've just been reading that Lucas Digne is on his way out, apparently Saudi Arabian side Al Hilal are willing to pay 30 million for him.
Not a bad price for a 31 year old and with Moreno back fit it would make sense, Digne is on a massive wage so to offload him for 30 million, bring in Acuna for 8 million, it still leaves us with 22 million in the pot, very good business in my opinion so let's see if it happens.

05 Jan 2024 10:15:45
Id be surprised if this happens in January he has being brilliant for us this season while Acuna hasn’t being to hot in la liga.

05 Jan 2024 12:22:42
Villa may see it has an opportunity to get good money for him but I have no idea if the player wants the move or indeed if it will happen.

05 Jan 2024 14:02:53
Yeh I can see the logic from the financial side of things but from a sporting view I think it would be a mistake, I know he’s on high wages but in the market for this last few years I think we bought him for a really good price, I read somewhere last week he’s the top LB in the league for chances created this season and defensively he’s being very solid, I think it weakens us if he leaves.

05 Jan 2024 16:47:23
Think I touched on this a few years ago… now we have super rich owners, we shouldn’t only be looking at players that we will make profit on if sold, the 1st priority should be WINNING. Would be brainless to sell Digne in Jan, this season and where we are right now is an opportunity that won’t come along to win the Prem, and I’m being serious in saying that.

Liverpool will miss Salah, Citeh haven’t clicked yet, Arsenal are bottlers, Digne is having his best season so far with us, we just need to add some quality and we are serious contenders. On the banter page I’ve made the case for Dybala and Couffal that would help us push on, that would cost roughly £15M, that’s peanuts to get to where we could be, we might even cover that in sales in Jan with the bit part players. Then if we get Champions League, go for the Frimpongs, Davids, Toneys etc 🤷🏼‍♂️

Finn Aziz to Boro loan deal until end of season

04 Jan 2024 02:16:52
Think it's a permanent deal for around 2.5 million, I don't know what clauses are involved though.

04 Jan 2024 21:15:57
He’s a snip at £2 million in todays market. I hope we insert a sell on clause, particularly given how he has developed over the last couple of seasons, with the right coaching I can maybe see him playing for teams either top end of the Championship or lower end Premiership. The lad is a talent in my opinion.

05 Jan 2024 00:12:14
At 2 million there is sure to be a sell on clause, there may even be a buyback option if they get promoted in the next couple of seasons, a good move for the lad and one which will benefit him as a player.

03 Jan 2024 16:48:05
If we're after Ngonge, that's another left footed attacking player, unless he's 1 for the future or too good a bargain to turn dow, what's the point of signing him, we need a No9. Also, I'd keep an eye on the Couffal situation at West Ham, if Emery is big on his full backs being more defensive minded, there's not many better than him in the Prem, a cheeky £5M bid for someone who's stalling on signing a new contract might get it done 🤷🏼‍♂️

Ngonge plays as an attacking midfielder or a striker, making him a lot more versatile to Emery's needs, good for rotation and cover for injury and suspension in various roles. An exciting and useful player at a very decent price.

05 Jan 2024 00:16:14
Not sure how this one is going, it seems to be common knowledge that the club have accepted our offer, but their is conflicting reports on whether the player wants the move or not, with some saying he wants Villa and some suggesting he wants a move to Fiorentina, looks like we will have to wait and see where this one goes.

03 Jan 2024 14:11:42
Anyone have any views on Cyril Ngonge who we are rumoured to have reached a verbal agreement for?

04 Jan 2024 02:20:28
An exciting attacking player who will be very useful to Emery, an excellent price for a very good versatile player, I've heard the fee is agreed and it now just awaits personal terms and a medical to see the move happen.

03 Jan 2024 13:43:58
I see mboro want finn azaz 4mil not going to get in 1st team so sell i say

02 Jan 2024 21:39:46
Cyril ngonge of Hellas Verona, never heard of him but I read a report saying we had a 9 million bid accepted for him. the money seems about right, I can't see us spending more than 30 million across 2 or 3 players

03 Jan 2024 11:43:09
His stats are good, and there is a video of him doing a scorpion kick goal similar to Girou for Arsenal a few years back. Looks like he's going to Fiorentina though.

03 Jan 2024 14:27:46
Villa56 I have seen a report we have a verbal agreement for him, just personal terms and medical to sort out. Monchi appears to be all over this one.
