Villa can t stop signings! After signing Sancho, he will chase Liverpool s 50 million new stars

Aston Villa is about to finalize the first signing for the summer window deadline, but after signing Jaden Sancho, Unai Emery did not intend to stop signing.

Villa has reached an agreement with Manchester United to introduce Sancho on a season loan, and the winger will soon join Villa Park Stadium.

Although Emiliano Martinez is pushing for a transfer to Manchester United, Sancho's deal has nothing to do with the possibility of the World Cup goalkeeper's move to Old Trafford.

Villa accelerated the transfer operation on the deadline - their only signings worthy of attention throughout the summer were forward Ivan Gaisan.

Once Sancho's trade is settled, Emery will turn his attention to another England player with an uncertain future at Liverpool.

According to TheAthletic, Aston Villa is exploring the possibility of signing Harvey Elliott before the deadline of 7 p.m. Liverpool hopes Elliott stays at Anfield, but if the midfielder makes it clear that he wants to leave for a first-team opportunity, Arne Slot is willing to approve his transfer.

As many reports show, if the transaction contains a repurchase clause, the Reds will accept a £40 million offer; if there is no repurchase clause, the interested team will have to pay £50 million.

Sources revealed to TBR Football that if Liverpool reached an agreement with a team willing to make him the main team immediately, Elliott would be happy to transfer.

The 22-year-old midfielder was a key player under Jurgen Klopp, but his playing time was significantly reduced in Slot's first season at Liverpool. As Jacob Ramsey transfers to Newcastle for £42 million, Aston Villa may use Elliot as his replacement - he fits the signing template for "being competent as an attacking midfielder and guest-playing wingers".

Eliott had almost no chance to prove himself in front of Slott last season, but his performance for Liverpool at the end of the 2023/24 season cannot be ignored: the Reds were trapped by injuries at the time, and he started the last six Premier League games in a row and contributed 1 goal and 5 assists.

In addition, Elliott almost won the Golden Boot in this summer's U21 European Championship - he scored his first goal in the final 3-2 defeat of Germany.

Now that Sancho joins, it will complement Morgan Rogers and Oli Watkins; if Elliot can be signed again, Villa is expected to form an expected set of local attack combinations, and Elliot may be the last puzzle of this combination.
