Emery’s stance convinces Aston Villa to block player’s exit – Manager doesn’t want to hear about January transfer

Since joining Aston Villa on loan in the summer, Clément Lenglet of Barcelona hasn’t been able to get any consistent playing time at Villa Park.

Sport talks about AC Milan’s interest in signing the Aston Villa center-back and how they moved forward to sign him in January.

There are rumors that the Catalan club is examining the possibility of another loan move to San Siro.

It took until last Friday for Lenglet to make his first Premier League appearance of the year, and that came about because Pau

Torres was sidelined by injury. The Frenchman had only been utilized by Unai Emery in the UEFA Conference League before that.

Sport reports that the Villas boss is “counting on him” despite the current circumstances, and the 28-year-old is anticipated to

complete his loan stint with the Premier League team.

Journalist Niccolò Ceccarini of TuttoMercatoWeb claims that the Rossoneri “insist” on signing the former Sevilla player.

Their need to add a center defender has grown as a result of Fikayo Tomori’s injury.

While Emery has “not opened in the slightest” to his potential departure next month, other teams are interested in the center-back.

These elements might make it challenging for Milan to sign him, but the reporter notes that things might change before the end

of the January window.

Milan “concretely explored” the idea of signing Lenglet, according to Calciomercato state.

Because Lyon has entered the race in the final few hours and Aston Villa “tries to raise the wall,” a deal is still complicated.
