Ross Barkley is currently engaged in negotiations regarding joining Aston Villa as his remarkable performance with Luton Town caught their attention.

The athlete who is 30 years of age had a favorable loan time with Villa during the 2020-21 season and is very desirous of carrying on with his profession in the Premier League after Luton was relegated.

Villa has qualified for the Champions League and requires additional players to strengthen their team. They are in search of a full-back, an adaptable center-back like Mario Hermoso, who is soon to be a free agent from Atletico Madrid, two midfielders, and a forward. Conor Gallagher from Chelsea has also caught their eye.

Nevertheless, they will also have to let go of a few members of their team in order to adhere to profit and sustainability regulations.

Vasco da Gama is interested in bringing Philippe Coutinho back to Brazil, while AC Milan might pursue defender Diego Carlos as a promising prospect.

Luton's Ross Barkley, who had a splendid season, is currently engaged in negotiations to join Aston Villa.

Unai Emery is seeking to increase the number of players available for his team following their successful qualification for the Champions League next year.

Barkley had a temporary stint with Aston Villa in the 2020-21 season where he netted thrice in the top-flight of English football.

Last year, Barkley became a Luton player without any payment after being transferred from Nice. He can now be purchased for a small amount of money.

Throughout this season, the Hatters enjoyed the talents of a skilled English player who appeared in 37 matches across various competitions. He was able to score five times in the Premier League and provided four assists during his time on the pitch.
