We need to appreciate how highly rated this guy is... If this comes off it could be one incredible signing!! Check out his summary on hitc sevens "best players outside of top 5 european leagues" video...😮
I like the idea of this one a lot. Regardless of whether we get him or not, Im just glad to see us looking at defenders already and this early in the window. Shows the Intent and Urgency in which Villa want to patch up the defensive Issue's. UTV
I'm hesitant on Carlos going. He's not great most of the time but if We were in a CL final tomorrow He'd play for me. He's been fantastic everytime Weve played a top opposition. Certainly a big game player. And with Pau injured We need numbers. I'm good with a sale really only because We need money for PSR.
I'd have scouts in Scsndinavia and the lower leagues also. Villa need someone similar to Teale, Laursen, Mellberg, Ehiogu - a brick wall basically. All of the players above were signed for cheap fees. Also, other clubs picked up the likes of Ronny Johnsen, Henning Berg, Brede Hangeland... the list goes on. Hopefully Swinkels gets a loan move soon as well because the kid has potential. If he could go to a good league 1 side I think we'd see him kick on significantly.
If the scouting team can’t find players in the Scandinavian leagues that are up for the job or South American leagues then they need to change the scouting team, or go ask Brighton how they seem to find them and then make money when they sell them?
For Me Barry should be given a chance. Untested doesn't mean bad. I don't want us to be in the same situation We were with Philogene trying to buy him back if he bangs. We need to test him 1st. If it doesn't work He can still be sold to a championship club. If it does He's worth more.
Aslong I don’t see guendouzi links again 😂yea defence is most important atm we score goals just can’t keep them out so sort that out and I think we are good till summer I remember when mareno came in on January it helped a lot so if we can do the same on right side and have a nice back up future cb I’ll be happy
I have a feeling we are being used to push a move to Juventus, he’s hardly played this season at benfica for some reason, woukd be a big coupe if we pulled this off
Admittedly Aurajo and Otamendi have been immense for them. Benfica have only conceded 9 league goals in 16 games. The manager probably doesn't want to break up a back line that has worked for him since GW1. The club probably also want/need a sale and don't want him getting injured.
I read lastnight Luke that DAZN IT had already reported a Villa bid had been accepted of a €5m loan fee and then an option to buy at €40m. I can't believe this will be done until I hear it is. Real were linked in the summer and He's wanted by almost every top European club.
Morning Luke. Spanish, Portuguese defenders don’t tend to be hard/physical enough for the PL, stats in their leagues don’t necessarily translate to the English PL. Right age and profile, but are we high enough in the PL to attract a player of this reputation?
You're right on Spanish players (generally) but you should revise the statement for Portuguese players. It's more often a case of if they have the out and out quality, but the physicality is most often fine.
I do think Villa are selling a Forward in Summer to make PSR work. Malen is an important signing for this; i definitely think Malen gets done. I really hope SILVA can get in to Villa- that would BE IMMENSE!!!! If Villa add Malen, Silva, and good RB Oscar Mingueza all for about €90M … i think that can work with selling a Star ST, Carlos & Digne/Moreno in the Summer.
Luke just a mad question,if Liverpool won the champs league an say United won the Europa how many would those places be past down the league, cause in my head if a English team won both of the cups but both finished out side the top 5 we would have 7 teams in the champs league that's 35 percent of the league?
Think the Silva rumour is just Mendes using Villa’s name again to push Juventus into getting the deal done. The Muani deal is just utter rubbish imo, if we are tight with PSR still I struggle to see how that deal is possible.
we need Silva on loan and sign and send on loan that Turkish lcb, loan in donyell malen and/or felix and maybe kolo muani, and get out Carlos, loan philogene or even swap deal for chukuweze but I think that rumours gone, hopefully loan Barry out instead of sell bc I think he's got great potential, call and loan back out iling Jr bc he doesn't get enough minutes. quite a long paragraph but I love transfers I just hope we get something done and make moves this window.
@UTVFANCHANNEL yeah ik I'm saying we need to sign him and send him on loan, unless paus out for the season then u never know if we do sign him he would play 🙏
I still think there’s a Philogene swap loan available w AC Milan for Chukwueze or Noah Okafor. Okafor is quite like Malen… adding him would give Villa many solid bodies up front. Watkins, Duran, Rogers, Malen, Okafor, Ramsey all big, solid & quick bodies. Milan also has Tammy Abraham- an old favorite. I still think Philogene has a good chance of ending up at AC Milan.
@@Reince-b9g rather have chukuweze than okafor, we need more skillful players in the squad because we already have physical players, plus I feel he's better overall
I would give Barry a chance he is a real talent and scores goals for fun for Stockport, he is defensively sound to and plays without fear, Bailey has been poor all season so give L.B a chance, i would sell Buendia,Olson,Philogene,Carlos and Ramsey he is to injury prone sorry.
Good morning. I m all for it if he can clear in the air the oppositions long balls. We desperately need to improve our defending and like you said in a previous video a new defender will help because right now we are stuck and we see the same mistakes and lack of aggression. Hope we can get him. As far as Malen, doen not make us overly excited but we do need some help on the wings with Bailey so out of form. I would prefer a loan if we can get a player at his level because he is not someone that can take us a level above. He can help for sure but he is not a game changer. UTV
Unfortunately I think Duran will go for mega-money in the summer, that being the case Villa can spend some of that money in advance as PSR won't be a concern.
As good as Duran has been and I love him I honestly think Emery would sell at the right price due to his overall hard to manage negativity, hopefully not this month though. I just can't see Duran being happy at any club unless he plays in the starting line up, wherever he goes I bet he is sold again within 12 months
@@andyhiley-u7hHe's improved massively on his mentality. Kicking the water bottle was frustration for wrongly being sent off. And I dare say frustration at a prediction that some would jump to say "same old Duran" even though kicking the bottle would make it worse. It was akin to stubbing your toe on an object and kicking the object I'm frustration only ro further hurt your foot. Who's never done that? I think We need to ease up on him. Emery seems to be working on him on and off the pitch. Also don't discount Emerys obsession with winning. He'll be aware that Ollie is nearly 30 and a decline is inevitable. The club themselves want younger talent and Duran has recently signed a new contract. I don't consider it a certainty that if We sold One it would be Duran. In fact I consider it more likely that it would be Ollie, whilst the price is still a big one.
@outofthetrash5925 as much as I agree with you I just think the noises behind the scenes aren't great. That new contract just means we get more money for him. Emery will only take so much before coming to the conclusion it's having a determental effect on the team. I really hope I'm wrong. I'm not having a go at him far from it but sometimes you have to weigh up the situation. It's not just 1 or 2 instances, it keeps happening time n time again, God knows what goes on behind the scenes. I wouldn't be surprised if both strikers are gone in the next 12 months tbh. But in Emery I trust and nobody should say different if he decides to sell whoever
@outofthetrash5925 I agree fully with you. Everyone has him out to be this bad boy maniac who’s going to be locked up at some stage. He has nothing done wrong in my eyes his actions are exaggerated beyond all with people speculating what he may or may not be like at the training ground. He is a as 21 year old and still developing . Get off his case. He is a ball of flame in our squad and I love him for it.
Mallen doesn't do it for Me either Luke. Muani over valued because he plays at PSG. Can't get in the team but still valued at £60m. Better value elsewhere.
I love Transfer Hub! Keep 'em coming, Luke! Up the Villa!!!
Thanks Peter

Perhaps we could involve Carlos in the deal.
We Aston Villa should have made large investments on our back 4 last season.
Let’s goooo if we get him being a Portuguese player is just a plus. Vamos Villa!
I would love this one!
Love it hope it happens!! Break the bank for it!! UTV
💪🏻💪🏻
Break the Bank for it IS RIGHT. This guy is THEE FIX for our Defence which is absolutely 💯 needed for Villa to Fly
Yesss...! He's right footed ☺

I could see Malen coming in, but what love/need to see is Alex Baena coming in…
Luke, it’s all very well to be linked with these sort of players. If it happens fantastic.
Yep beauty of a transfer window
Let's see what happens. When we got Pau, people lost their mind about him as a defender, but it hasnt been great
I'd have scouts in Scsndinavia and the lower leagues also. Villa need someone similar to Teale, Laursen, Mellberg, Ehiogu - a brick wall basically. All of the players above were signed for cheap fees. Also, other clubs picked up the likes of Ronny Johnsen, Henning Berg, Brede Hangeland... the list goes on.

I think we’ll do business early ( if we can ) 🙏🏼….like the sound of Silva ….just about to go check him out on a vid somewhere 👍..
He would be a good signing Luke. UTV
Great pod UTV ❤
Legend
Sounds good. I'll take four of him please.
His agent Jorge Mendes has said that Silva wants to go to Juventus. Tonnes of other clubs interested too.
For Me Barry should be given a chance. Untested doesn't mean bad. I don't want us to be in the same situation We were with Philogene trying to buy him back if he bangs. We need to test him 1st.

Malen is good option, but lacking consistency for me. If emery can use his magic wand then he'll be ideal as long as the price is right.
Emery the key
I prefer scandinavian or northern european defenders. They're a better fit for English football.
What’s you opinions on Taisei Miyashiro and Ali Al-Makki to join Aston Villa
💜💙
I just hope we hit the ground running with these transfers like in the summer as we need these reinforcements asap to turn our fortunes around. 🤞
Me too mate
I agree there are clear things to improve, but 3 points off 5th place (CL) and in the top 8 of the CL after 6 games isn’t too bad.
@@thewellandvalley2103 5th place isn't confirmed UCL yet
VILLA should absolutely 💯 spend 45-50M for Silva. Immediately above any other deals, even Malen. GET THIS GUY IN
👌🏻👌🏻
If we get him and Kolo Muani on Loan with Obligation to buy we're laughing
👍🏻👍🏻
Yes very obvious are central defence is terrible
Malen > Muani
Having Dibu and Muani on the same team would be jokes honestly lmao, id love to see their first interaction in the dressing room.
Muani is garbage
I have a feeling we are being used to push a move to Juventus, he’s hardly played this season at benfica for some reason, woukd be a big coupe if we pulled this off

So its time for Silva to move. PAY FOR HIM VILLA!!! 💪💪💪
If Silva came in what would become of Konsa? Play as an un-adventurous RB forever? We'd still need a good RB.
