Aston Villa’s new starting XI if the transfer rumours are true – including ambitious £84m double swoop

Two new signings worth £84million could join Aston Villa this January if the transfer rumours come true.

Villa had a difficult start to the 2024/25 season, initially performing excellently but then becoming inconsistent, with a nine-game winless streak exposing some of the squad’s faults.

Unai Emery’s side was unbeaten for two months until mid-October, but then faced a difficult November in both the Premier League and the Champions League. The squad has been pushed to its limitations, particularly at right back and in midfield, with several players injured at this early stage.

As the holiday season approaches, fixture congestion increases, giving Emery a clear picture of where he wants to improve in January. It is thought that Villa are interested in recruiting a new right-sided defender and a flexible forward, but Emery may look at other options as well.
