Alejandro Martínez (Emi’s brother): “At Aston Villa, he’s the Diego (Maradona) of Napoli. He gave a lot at Villa, like Agüero did at City, like Leo Messi did at Barca. They’re legendary players, & it’s going to be hard to surpass what he did at Aston Villa.”

Martínez: “He is well-liked, & the directors didn’t want to sell him because he is the key player in the team, & another team wanted him. It was that commercial dispute. Emi never had an argument with Unai — it was all within the management’s control, & the clubs couldn’t agree.” #avfc

Just had an interesting conversation with a chap who works for Birmingham Children’s Hospital Charity.
He was saying he visited Emi and was chatting to him about the charity.
The guy, being a Villa fan, asked him if he was leaving.
Emi told him that ManU wanted him, but Villa did not want to sell.
There’s probably a little bit more in between, but I would guess we put a huge price on his head, hence no offer was officially made.

On a side note, Spurs offered £80m for Morgan Rogers and Villa, obviously, said no.

It does seem a derisory offer for a young, talented player and a Premier League football club.

If they had offered Josh Onamah as part of the deal it may have been too good to turn down.
