This window has been tough. It's also been exciting. And it's not over yet. Villa going from an estimated ~88% squad-cost ratio to about 63% is incredible. That's the story behind selling some of our best players. Not a club falling apart - a reset so we can keep competing without panic-selling every summer. Still in the market. Building a team for longevity. (Estimates, not official UEFA figures.) #AVFC #AstonVilla #TransferWindow

I have said it before and will say it again, the players name on the back of the shirt will never be more important than the badge on the front of the shirt. We move on UTV @AstonVilla

#FIFAWorldCup2026 that has to go down as one of the worst TV productions of all time. A chaotic mess of terrible jokes, off script ad-libs bombing, wooden presenters and over Americanised BS. All topped off with a made up brown nose prize and band taking it all back to 1978.

🚨🟣🔵 Evann Guessand to Aston Villa, here we go! Verbal agreement in place after €30m plus €5m add-ons bid accepted. OGC Nice authorized Guessand to travel for medical and contract signing as next steps. New striker for Unai Emery.
