HOT Rumour Alert: Aston Villa in Talks to Sign Chelsea Ace for Record-Breaking Fee

Although Aston Villa’s attempt to sign Joao Felix was unsuccessful, they still want offensive reinforcements.

It’s interesting to note that Felix’s new team, Chelsea, might have the solution for Villa.

Speaking on the London is Blue Podcast, Ben Jacobs claims that Aston Villa may be planning a last-minute surprise move for Raheem Sterling.

Sterling may be heading to Villa after making waves over the weekend with his remarks after being left out of the Chelsea starting lineup.

Raheem Sterling might be an Aston Villa alternative.
Jacobs revealed his knowledge of Aston Villa and the £50 million man.

“The last intriguing tidbit of information I’ve heard, which shocked me, is that Aston Villa is also keeping an eye on the situation. Villa lost Diaby, and they had their eye on Joao Felix, according to Jacobs.

It’s still extremely formative, so I’m not sure if it will catch on, but have Villa in the back of your mind. During the last few days of the window, they will be extremely active.

“Villa and Sterling, there are rumblings right now. I don’t want to overexcite Chelsea or Villa supporters just yet, but that’s another name to add to the mix alongside Juventus.”

Raheem Sterling of Chelsea plays during the Chelsea FC vs. Manchester United Premier League game at Stamford Bridge on April 4, 2024, in London.

Sterling may thrive at Aston Villa.
This might be the perfect action for Sterling to revive his career.

Although Sterling has been out of the game for much too long, he could be able to return to the heights he once achieved at Manchester City with the help of a manager like Unai Emery.

When he’s in form, Sterling is among the best attackers in the Premier League, but his recent struggles have been caused by Chelsea’s unrest.

If Sterling signs with Villa to play for Emery, he might be able to find his best form again.
