Summer Transfer Window (2024/25)

[CarryOnVilla]

We resign Philogene, sell Diaby and use that money/squad spot to get the killer CM we all want

I have a hunch, we buy him to sell for the same price to Ipswich, but with a few clauses inserted 

Either that or we're getting him back temporarily to use in an exchange?

Club could have fed something to Tanswell (or his colleague Orstein) to help frame a narrative and drive bidding.  

The plot thickens.

The possibilities are endless. More so with Monchi, we have no idea what he’s cooking 

[Okonokos]

Honestly, signing Philogene for £13m could be the deal of the summer. We have to get this done.

[Pongo Waring]

I bet Hull City are begging Philogene to go to Ipswich so they pocket the full 18 million

Rather bring JPB back for 12m than spunk 30m+ on Summerville.

In 2019, when he was a championship player and we went on to scrape PL survival.

Hardly 2024 CL Villa going for him is it. 

On that premise part of the England side that reached the Euro Final in 2020. Then Pep signed him at City in 2022. So in the opinion of several posters here last season he had become shit in one season.

Don't really want to sell Diaby, but I'm wondering if Unai/Monchi have decided there are better, more " ready " options if we can cash in.

JPB would have no settling in issues and is a strong enough lad for the league.

Head says it makes a lot of sense. Heart says Diaby will smash it this year and I love his smiley little face so don't wont him to go 

[nepal_villan]

Cant see him coming back unless someone is going out.  Rather keep Diaby and Ramsey than take a chance on Philogene.

If we do sign him, Villa will offer Hull a Dobbin loan deal like…

Even if he chooses Ipswich we get 5.4 million so not a bad deal either way I guess.

Fabrizio giving it the eyes.

We need a bigger squad this year, Emery will rotate a lot.

[CVByrne]

We had a 30% sell on clause in Philogene contract. Wow that's a big clause.

It'll be a tough decision for Philog to make. Surely he'll get more game time from the other clubs.

Tbh, I don’t think one wants to sell him. Well not desperately 

but if we want to add senior players, senior players need to go.. 

we are currently 4 players over to register every senior player for CL

He won't get CL football at other clubs though.

This lad will shock a few, he looked ready last year before a full season in the championship. He’s going to tear it up I reckon
