Isn't he in the last year of his contract at Man Utd?

He’s just signed a new contract with them

I wonder if Tuanzebe means the end of Guilbert (given that Axel can play at centre half and full back)?

Can't see him dislodging Konsa or Mings but decent back-up. Welcome back.

Happy enough with this, he knows the club and is good cover for cb and also right back. If we could get Ward Prowse next week I would be delighted with the business done

Don't quite understand how so many can be so certain he's back as our 4th choice CB. Why would he want to be that at Villa rather than Man Utd? Seems more likely he has received encouragement he'll play or it seems a very odd career move on his part.

There's talk that we want the option of being able to play a back 3 at times.

I think so. He'll cover at RB when Cash isn't around.

Freddie I'm afraid just in that Engels camp of he played a bit, manager decided he wasn't for him and it's now a case of hanging around until a decent offer comes in. Would be surprised if Gulibert is still here 2nd September.

He’s a decent player and a good character. The good character thing is under rated. Look at when we were last a really good side under big Ron - characters all through the side who could play a bit. Villa seem to have it sussed now

Wow, back for a third time. Maybe he's destined to be at Yanited all his career and loaned-out to Villa every second year!

Seriously though, could Dean be thinking that Konsa might be worth a go as the midfield-base lynchpin we need and if that works, Tuanzebe could partner Mings ?

I didn't even realise it was his 3rd time. So he was here before the 18/19 season? I've completely forgotten that.

Reasonably pleased with this.  I’d prefer the try before you buy option than spending £20m on a reserve and also gives the youth players a year to develop.

What if the plan is to move Konsa into defensive midfield?

Which will allow him to get picked for England as a CB
