Milan Škriniar has been offered to Aston Villa as they seek a short-term replacement for Pau Torres. @TomCollomosse

 Samuel Chukwueze has also been proposed to Villa & they may consider him if they cannot do a deal for Donyell Malen.
@TomCollomosse

Chukwueze is a top player. Id be delighted with him

You might have seen him a lot more then I have, but going on stats, I would prefer Malen.

[ozzjim]

Totally different players. Chukweaze is a proper tricky winger, Malen is a forward that can play across the 3 positions. With Philogene going there would be a good case for both being very very useful.

[Somniloquism]

Yes but the statement initially posted was either/or. So in that case Malen.

Great business if true . Hopefully it's 100% cash and no stocking fillers thrown in like Dobbin / Ned etc

Either  one i am happy with to be honest. Both are upgrades on philiogene.  I think it will be malen though

What's the maths on this one? I can't remember what we sold him for the first time, or what we paid to bring him back?

£18mil approx which was the offer Ipswich put in and we were allowed to match on first refusal.

[cdbearsfan]

I can't wait to see how much we pay to get him back in the summer.

[ozzjim]

Worked out to £13m as we had a 30% sell on clause.

But we got a £5m discount from the price any other club agreed as part of the buyback.

For ipswich is a great deal too. Because even if hw doesnt do much in PL, if ipswich  go down as expected  he will be superb in championship

Indeed. And we got £5m for him the year before as well. So we’ve made about £13m off him all told.

If he's got the choice of Everton or Ipswich Shirley he should go for the Toffees.

Unless he's OK with being on the move again this summer when Ipswich inevitably drop.

Playing for a Dyce team can't be the most fun you can have with your clothes on, true. But new ownership + investment there, and a fair chance of a more progressive coach in the summer. Plus the new stadium etc.
