Aston Villa Report

New: Aston Villa have expressed a strong interest in Jarrod Bowen. #AVFC recently made admiration firmly known but no club-to-club talks. Villa view a deal as currently difficult due to financial limits, but Emery a huge admirer. @theathleticfc.bsky.social https://www.nytimes.com

Nottingham Forest have identified Lucas Bergvall as a potential replacement for Elliot Anderson. #AVFC admire 20yo but not actively looking for a CM without making a sale. Bergvall’s preference is to move on from #THFC. @theathleticfc.bsky.social https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/
