Use our rumours form to send us aston villa transfer rumours.

Andi Weimann has apparently sealed a 2.75 million move to Derby County - Bearing in mind DB9 has gone too we are a bit thin on the striker front.

So do we invest in any replacements or try to give some of the academy players an opportunity to make the first team squad?

I think it will be a bit of both Andy to be honest. looks like TS is trying to offload dead weight as early as possible which is a good thing. think it's going to be a very interesting summer!!

I think it is a necessity for us to invest in at least in 1 or 2 proven additions. The younger lads need proven players ahead of them on the pitch for them to aspire to fulfill their potential without the burden of having to hit the ground running. It would be a huge risk to enter into the new season with Benteke, Kozak and Robinson especially with question marks over the first two fitness wise both having spent lengthy periods out of action injured.Even if Benteke were to stay another proven Prem or top league goalscorer is a must.

I wonder if Tim might be giving Helenius a chance to prove himself this season, if Benteke leaves then I see us signing another central striker but if he stays I reckon he'll use Kozak Gabby an Helenius as competition for Benteke

Agree2 Disagree1

19 Jun 2015 07:44:19
Helenius won't be there, we've told him to find a new club and he's said he has no interest in coming back

Agree1 Disagree0

19 Jun 2015 09:03:29
That's a fact, Helenius won't be at Villa next season.

Aston villa to sign andros Townsend for £14.5million from spurs.

If we get him it will be good news

We really have 14.5 mil to spend on one player???! I really hope this is true.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 21:50:26
He has already said he wants to stay at spurs and fight for his place

I am genuinely intrigued about what is going on at VP at the moment. half the players we are being linked with is just lazy journalism but what does make things interesting is posts like the one above. where is the money coming from because Lerner would not sanction 14.5million unless the money was being recouped by selling someone OR someone else is funding it!! Or all these rumours are just BS lol.

I'm shif fan of townsend an I think he'd be a huge success at villa but £14m+ seems too much considering Spurs don't seem to see him as a long term mainstay of their team, surely £10m tops would be a fair deal.

Agree1 Disagree0

I see Konoplyanka is looking to move from Dnipro. Would love to see him at villa. I could imagine the fee to be around 10m.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

19 Jun 2015 05:02:32
Konoplyanka is available on a free transfer if I read correctly, his wages of 100k week would put him out of our reach i'm guessing.
Terrific player tho, shame we're simply not able to compete to get players like him at the moment.

Agree1 Disagree0

19 Jun 2015 11:41:59
That's a great free for someone if it's true. 100k is a lot for a dude coming from Ukraine league, unproven at prem lvl etc but your right that would rule us out haha.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 20:15:17
Rumours going around about demba ba wouldn't mind getting him, I think it's going to be a good window with the quality of players we have been linked with lately

Would rather see remy

Albanian and Basel goalscorer Shkëlzen Gashi is being followed by a few Premier League clubs, like Aston Villa and Watford, as well as Serie A side Fiorentina. The striker has been the top scorer in Swiss Super League for the last two seasons, and Basel will only be eager to sell its leading forward if the right offer comes.

Burnley have agreed a £1.75m fee with Aston Villa for Matt Lowton. Deal expected to go through in the next few days.

Shame - thought he'd develop after a decent first season but he's slipped away so best to move on. Thanks for the Stoke goal and the Sunderland pass to Weimann. Sadly, just not good enough.

Denis cherychev is a player villa have enquired about. To me this shows a real statement of intent with regards to investment and funds made available with the player valued around 12million

Amavi coming to Bodymoor Heath this afternoon apparently. Also should know one way or another about Huddleston and Townsend next week

Believable0 Unbelievable1

18 Jun 2015 15:26:17
Both huddlestone and townsend will be villa players next season and I hope this french lad also signs.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 22:16:36
Townsend yes pls!! Great to be linked with these great young prospects.

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 12:03:50
did anybody see that Colombian midfielder Carlos Sanchez meant to play for Aston Villa he was awesome marked Neymar out there game wouldn't mind him! Joking aside boys Tom Huddlestone is defo coming villa expect it to be announced very soon! another guy that sherwood is a big fan kyle walker on that 1 tho as villa are really struggling to get interest for any fringe player!

Believable1 Unbelievable0

18 Jun 2015 16:46:27
Carlos Sanchez played great , I don't rate Tom Huddlestone and don't want spurs cast offs, if they are not good enough for spurs ,not good enough for villa, M Richards great

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 22:33:38
Not sure about Huddlestone. It wasn't that long ago he was playing well and pushing for an England call. Didn't go well last season though. It also depends on how Sherwood would want to use him. Rigobert Song run the midfield when he came on for west Ham against us and Huddlestone could play that role and feed a higher tempo midfield in front of him. Maybe.

I'm hearing a couple of things this morning. Man u to meet benteke buy out next week and get the deal done and we are linked to a couple of very interesting players. The first one being andros townsend. This one has popped up a bit over last few days and I followed this lead up and told we are currently in negotiations with spurs. They want it to be for big ben with us getting townsend and 15 million but villa just want to buy him and rate him at around 12 million. The other one is nani off man u . Yes you herd me right nani. Not sure on this one guys if anything comes of this as he is a lazy player and not a team guy. Maybe tim thinks he can get a tune out of him but I'd stay well clear myself.

Give it a rest. Not funny, not interesting. In short a waste of everyones time

In your oh so boring opinion. Well you entitled to your opinion as am I mine mendax. I like to bring rumors that I here as this is after all a rumour site. You on the other hand comment once something has happened and then claim to be right. I get a lot most in fact wrong but I put it out when I here it not once signed then say richards signed for villa. Like some on here then claim they are journo's. Give me a break pmsl. I work as close to the villa link wise as anyone that will be on this site. But I like a bit of banter and don't think I'm something I'm not.!!!

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 12:22:24
And trust me we are in talks over townsend and a good chance of a deal. Nani has been offered to us. What is so wrong with either link mendax ?

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 12:52:08
Kingvilla you are a fantasist mate. Making stuff up and reporting something as a rumour are entirely different things.
As for the thinking I'm something I'm not, I think even you know that's not true. Which makes it a silly comment to make in the first place (wouldn't be a first for you on that front)
Of course you are entitled to your opinion. I respect the opinion of everyone on here, yours included when you choose to express it. It's just the lies masked as rumours I can't abide.
It was funny for a while but no more mate, Please; pretty please with cherries on top !
Lastly, I don't think I have ever come on here and "claimed to be right"
I do always think I'm right of course, as does every other poster. But what I'm interested in is debate based on fact

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 13:02:47
Is that a debate on a grand scale Mendax?
If so Kingvilla I think he may be after a MASS debate!!!!

Agree1 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 13:35:47
Well I respect your opinion of me mendax. I don't agree of course and think you and most on here have me all wrong but hey ho life would be boring if we all just agreed. I guess we will see if what I put is made up bs when townsend signs. I will out of respect reign in the out there banter posts though. I do need to add though it's aston villa rumors and banter not aston villa debate site so I don't see me having a bit of fun with you all on some posts as to much of a problem. Thanks for your input though mate and let's hope our mighty club has a good one this year hey.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 13:52:03
Lol. No no the guy does talk sense. He is just wrong on me and has a funny fetish for MASS debate.

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 13:54:21
Amen to that Kingvilla. Reigning in the "out there posts" is all I ask
I could have been a little less grumpy about it though so no hard feelings I hope

Agree0 Disagree0

18 Jun 2015 14:00:40
Defo no hard feelings mandax. We are all after all supporters of the mighty villa.
