Aston Villa's Moussa Diaby is being linked with a move away to Al-Ittihad and could become the second most expensive sale in Villa history if the deal goes ahead.
Villa are also set to complete the signing of Jaden Philogene after activating a clause with Hull City, and Jhon Duran is still attracting interest from West Ham.

Don't understand the confusion. Philogene will be back up for Bailey on the RW. Diaby was poor as an AMC. No presence, inability to hold the ball up, weakened the box midfield when we played it and rarely got to use his pace. I suspect we will go for a quality purpose built AMC for Buendia to compete with. Duran needs replacing when he goes and then that's the forwards sorted.

@hotdiggityd Месяц назад

Agreed on Diaby. Thought he was poor in the main. What I will add is that having Philogene and Ramsey allows both Bailey and Rogers the opportunity to play as the 10/Support, as well as Buendia. Plenty of options now, I'm not sure he really needs 'replacing'

@jefri4176 Месяц назад

Agree totally. Diaby went missing often during the games,maybe need more time adapting to unai tactic and epl. As long we can make a profit on him then it's oke.

@justininfrance Месяц назад

Imagine Spurs buying Ramsey, THAT would be an intolerable, rioting in the streets transfer. But Diaby to Saudi? Ok, it’s odd, but I’m fine with it. Welcome home Philogene, looking forward to seeing what he can do.

@sheriffkimbo Месяц назад

Ah dude, definitely. Ramsey playing for anyone else would be bad but Spurs would be one of the more horrific clubs he could move to.

@willmunda403 Месяц назад

Nothing wrong with the Philogene deal. Its tactical. Transfer on a low fee to get the player match experience, but leave a clause to buy back should Hull decides to sell. Both Ipswich and Hull value him at £18m which Villa can and have matched minus the 30% sell-on amount discount. There should always be a way for our academy players to get back to club once they have excelled and shown their worth and they choose to return.

@vickyjennings6414 Месяц назад

I live in Hull. Philogene is VERY, VERY well loved here! Glad to see him back at Villa. UTV 💜💙

@PDX-Villan Месяц назад

I believe that Philogene and Archer are both hoe-grown at the club. The Champions League gives us 4 slots that have to be filled with such players, and Ramsey is our only one. Thus, these players can be net additions to the European roster and don't need to replace anyone else.

@paulhanson5164 Месяц назад

Considering squad numbers in terms of who we can register and having options in every position I wonder if our back up for Watkins is in plain sight, Rogers has the physical attributes of a number 9. We have an abundance of players who can play in all the other forward positions, before people mock the idea remember Watkins was a winger 12 months before we signed him. At the back we have 3 LBs and 1 RB, I doubt Konsa wants to play RB long term and I query the idea of Unai wanting to play with a back 3 when we've just blown over £30m on a 5ft 8 LB. Assuming all the deals been talked about happen I'd then like to sell a LB and sign a RB who's an upgrade on Cash.

@KeithBruton-pn9dx Месяц назад

Can someone do something about the reporting in Birmingham Live? This is the opening paragraph “The window officially opened last month but Villa boss Unai Emery is not expected to sign a bucketload of players after admitting the club has to be "intelligent" in the market due to the constraints of the Profitability and Sustainability Rules (PSR).” Villa have already signed 6 players and 2 more expected in the next few days. More could be signed if Duran and Carlos are sold so how many is a bucket load? Must be more than 10.

@jimtheophilou9872 Месяц назад

Cant see why it wouldnt make sense to spend £50m on a Diaby replacement. If the profile of the incoming player is a better fit for the system we plan to play next season, or if Unai/ Monchi think theyre a better player with the same profile then it makes sense surely. If we are a willing seller and replace Diaby for the same money we only do this if as a club we think it makes us stronger.

@domprice1183 Месяц назад

This is what Monchi does - makes a lot of transfers but doesn’t really improve the team. It’s what he did at Roma especially, a lot of his transfers were really poor during that spell. For me (if diaby goes) we have weakened our first 11 with the loss of him and luiz - as well as the loss of the chaos twins as they did chip in with some important moments. We need a spare keeper, another right back and a top drawer dominant cb to replace mings long term. Our weakness last season wasn’t scoring, it was defending. That’s where the focus should be (and the one defensive player we have brought in with maatsen - his weakest part of his game is defending)

@kelvinhill Месяц назад

Fans are forgetting Buendia didn't play last season so is in effect Diabys replacement when it comes to supporting the striker, Philogene gives you the alternative/back-up wide player to Bailey

@Bobby_sprinkles Месяц назад

We don't know how Buendia is going to be once he gets on the grass again mind

@amlmorris Месяц назад

It's good too see smart flexible business going on at Villa for a change & maybe if Monchi can replicate what he did at Sevilla we could turn a profit on our recruitment for once. 😊

@zakjones94 Месяц назад

I am almost certain with will replace Diaby. I think we need someone to play the ‘Diaby role’ I don’t think it will be another ‘winger’ but more like a number 10. Someone like Alvarez (my dream signing) or Felix who can link the play from midfield and unlock the low block that we’ll most likely be facing next season. I would imagine Philogene is going to be back up to Bailey on the right despite playing mostly off the left, as we have an abundance of options already on that side. We can’t go into the season with a replacement for Diaby imo.

The Diaby thing I don't really get. I think he's worthy of another season and showed glimpses much like Bailey has, and we all know how much he's kicked on. That said, if a bid comes in and it's a big recoup of profit (60 in as mentioned) then I think we could do some positive things with the leeway that gives us. Anyone else slightly concerned about such a big squad turnover?

@brettmiffling7306 Месяц назад

After the tournament that Williams Juniors just had with Spain there's absolutely no chance whatsoever of us being able to sign him given the club's that are trying to sign him..

@andygibbins5372 Месяц назад

I rate Philogene very highly and think he will quickly become a very meaningful goal scorer given the chance. Diaby is very skilful and a first rate player. He is also physically very small. Philogene and Rogers are much stronger and offer a physicality that Diaby doesn't have. If Duran has behavioural tendencies which outweigh his obvious talent then a heavy fee would be a good outcome. If we buy a marquis striker great, but maybe we already have one !!.

@sprigg44 Месяц назад

Dan can you check this Buendia playing on the left. Not once have I ever seen him play on the left for any of his previous clubs…….. in my mind he has only played in the 10 or on the right.

i don’t know why people are happy to move Duran on? he’s literally the perfect backup striker. a handful, young, offers something different. tell me, who would be better? sure, he’d like to play more but every second striker feels the same as would anyone else we got in. this is a talent to be nurtured and developed under a great manager. we have to be able to manage challenging players who don’t always tow the line, it can’t be beyond Emery and co.

Attitude

@dandavies2823 Месяц назад

yes i hear you and im sure he’s got the ego of a 20yr striker who backs himself but as you said it’s that kind of age profile we want and a lot of top strikers have attitude, we need to be able to manage that

@Bobby_sprinkles Месяц назад

The perfect sub striker is someone like Solsjaer. Not someone like Duran. You don't know what you're getting with Duran, he doesn't seem to read the game and get up to the speed of a game and he's as likely to get booked or sent off as he is to score a match winning goal. That might be fine in certain teams, but under Emery where he wants to be able to predict and gain control over games, that's not going to work. And that's before we even get into his poor attitude. If we can see it as fans, christ knows what he's like in the dressing room and what effect he's having on the squad and also players younger than him coming up. You can forgive ego and arrogance to a certain extent because players need it but it has to be justified through proven performances and we just haven't seen that from Duran. So with that in mind, if we can get a profit of 15 million on him and reinvest that to create a more well rounded and harmonious environment around the team then it's hard to argue against it.

@dandavies2823 Месяц назад

this is for your new bad takes section. you’ve been talking about not needing to get a first class RB because that could displace Konsa. This is madness because Konsa is only playing RB because he’s often better than Cash. With a Mings return doubtful in the short term and Carlos likely leaving, we need Konsa in central defense leaving a major RB gap.

If we can make a worthwhile profit from selling Diaby & already having plenty of options on both wings i'd do it & invest the money in other areas of the team, especially a striker. We're going to see what happens in time,but we have many wing options in Bailey,Rogers,Ramsey, Buendia,Illing junior & Philogene off the top of my head & a few can play on either side..... up the mighty Villa!!! 😊

@theduftmeister Месяц назад

Signed for £36M ish plus addons on a 5 year contract, Moussa is therefore probably worth about £30m - £35m on the books currently, If we think of all our current players who could play right wing or support striker, I think we could let Diaby go but I can't see Villa accepting anything less than £50m to give themselves a £15m 'profit'. We'd also reduce the small amount of champions league experience in the squad. I'm currently undecided, unless Saudi start waving around the big bucks of £55M+...

Fabrizio Romano has said we’ve turned their first offer down we want more than the £55m they have offered

@@hotdiggityd It's just my opinion but if you really must know.....we could make £15m profit but lose potential CL experience and a player who improves a bit more next year? but £20m profit is more palatable to such a loss with a view to PSR. And your point about it not being my money. Well, tbf, it's kind of all of our money isn't it.. Why do you think we've seen the hideous increase in prices on tickets, increases in corporate hospitality, club shop prices, refreshments etc and increases to SkyTV packages who pay increases TV rights etc...

@amlmorris Месяц назад

It's great we had the option too buy back Jaden Philogene,but in reality it's cost us approximately £7.6 million too bring him back even with the 30% discount on matching Ipswich's £18 million bid after selling him to Hull less than a year ago. If we could've loaned him to Hull for the season we would've got a loan fee + his wages paid by Hull,but without knowing all about the details/facts i would have thought there were some reasons for the way the deal was done. 😊

@MrMonkeyHat Месяц назад

Also the ridiculous PSR rules means we booked a profit of £5m into last years accounts and buying him back means we book a loss of 2.6m a year (for the next 5 years). Meaning that it was actually a good thing for PSR purposes

@catcannon9064 Месяц назад

That depends on how the deal was done. Did villa just pay 13m or did we pay 18m spread over 5 years and book £5m we recieve from hull. If that's the case we've received 10m in the last 2 years accounts for philogene and outlayed 3.6m@MrMonkeyHat

@Bobby_sprinkles Месяц назад

I think it was a PSR thing to be honest. It comes up as profit on the books, where as a loan wouldn't (I'd imagine). I imagine we're going to see a lot of clubs using little loop holes to get around these silly rules. It's just a shame that it seems to come at the expense of nurturing young talent in the game.

@Tom.Jackson. Месяц назад

Aston Villa have identified Williams as the ideal replacement for Diaby. The 22-year-old was one of the biggest stars of Euro 2024 and scored against England in the final, playing a vital role in Spain lifting the trophy. Unai Emery has given the green light to his signing and sporting director Monchi is working on the transfer behind the scenes. TEAMtalk can confirm that Villa have held talks with Williams’ agents over a move, but they face stiff competition from Chelsea and Barcelona who are also in contact with his entourage.
