Highest earner at the club is Sancho.

I’m not sure Man City would’ve that stared about selling us / loaning us that Marmoush fellow.  They’ve just signed a load more players haven’t they?  I have no idea if Marmoush is any good.

Looks like Malen won't be around by Sunday but unlikely we will have a replacement in by then. Not ideal.

You sure? He's our golden boy. It was Percy who went in hard on Gallagher.

Golden boy?! I haven't seen anyone associated with Villa more badly in need of subbing since Luc Nilis went down  Vs Ipswich.

No hate here, just occasionally tortured by prose.

🚨 Donyell Malen to Roma —  €2m loan fee, with a mandatory clause set at €25m in case Roma qualifies for any European competition next season.
@DiMarzio
 
Roma have improved their offer to Aston Villa for Donyell Malen: €2 million on loan, plus a €25 million option to buy if they qualify for European competition.

Roma are pushing ahead with the move for Donyell Malen: in the last few hours, the Giallorossi club has presented an improved offer to Aston Villa, aiming to close the deal and beat out competition from Atletico Madrid, who are keeping a close eye on the deal.

The proposal in question involves a €2 million loan , with a mandatory buyout of €25 million if Roma qualifies for a European competition next season: Champions League, Europa League, or Conference. There is no clause tied to the player's number of appearances.

In effect, it's almost a permanent signing: to avoid triggering the obligation to buy, Roma would have to finish the season in seventh place, an unlikely scenario. Contacts are continuing, and optimism is growing: Roma wants Malen and has now put the right offer on the table to try and bring him to the capital.

That's a strong offer and likely their final one.

Terrible time to move him in though, unless we've got a replacement in mind and ready to fire on.

We do, it's just that no one seems particularly keen on it outside of those in charge...

Can understand people feeling a bit jittery about our early transfer business, but I remember feeling the same early in the summer window and it all turned out just fine… oh.
