Sarr was another but gone to Spurs for 14m. Sissoko is available at Spurs. Again I feel he would improve Villa’s midfield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Jens Cajuste wasn't in FC Midtjylland's squad at the weekend ahead of a likely move somewhere... (Brentford? I know others have said we may be interested before too.) Probably unrelated (but I like to provide points for speculation) but there's a private plane seemingly from Midtjylland's closest airport which looks to be flying in to BHX now. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine he will have plenty of suitors in the championship and will get that move. I think wages might be a problem with Hourihane, he'll likely have to take a pay cut and might not want to.

Very true. I suspect we will end up paying a nominal fee to him to leave. He’s a good pro so I expect he will want football, but he’s fully entitled to expect some compensation from us to leave.

HalfTimePost Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 2 hours ago, Peter Griffin said: I think Houirhane will be relatively easy to move to the Championship, it will be late in the window and it will be down to what % of his wages we will pay. I can't see why we would move Guilbert on. We need backup for Cash with Elmo having left I think we'd find it easy to move Hourihane to the Championship. The hard part is convincing Hourihane to go to the Championship. He's not one to sit here on his contract but I wouldn't be surprised if he was targetting one last go at getting minutes in the Premier League this year. He'll fight for that shirt and I wouldn't at all be surprised to see him turn down offers and stay with us, working to get game time in the team.

villa4europe Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 i actually think sissoko would improve our midfield... but it wouldn't be by enough or for long enough to make signing him worthwhile, he's not the long term answer to what we need, we'd be stuck with him as dead weight for 2 to 3 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dont_do_it_doug. Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Sissoko is seen as a bit of a joke, probably due to the crazy high fee he went for at the time. But you aren't completely pony if you're getting 70 caps for France. He's a bit too much like McGinn, only less disciplined. We don't need another number 8, he's 32 and he's off to the Middle East anyway, which is probably about right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
