Then go out and sign Sevilla's Sporting Director Monchi. We would be completely set for years to come! You said it yourself, you want to be in the pinnacle of European football again, well there's a start and your first steps! The same Monchi that the whole of Europe seems to be after?

VillaJ100 Posted June 3, 2016 Share Posted June 3, 2016 Yeah I think 'summer' is 'Xia' in Chinese, so 'summer build system' is Googles terrible attempt at translating Jiantong Xia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair the reports on that says now "agreed subject to Premier League Approval" BBC Article: Quote The American takeover of Swansea City worth around £100m has been completed, subject to Premier League approval. Jason Levien and Steve Kaplan lead a consortium which has bought a controlling stake of 60% in the club. They must now pass the Premier League's test for prospective owners for the takeover to be officially approved So they are about 2/3 weeks behind if they get ratified before us, that'll be annoying!
