The head honcho at Aston Villa, Unai Emery, has made it clear that he has no intention of letting go of Ollie Watkins. He stated that the club will not easily entertain any potential deals for the striker, especially after Arsenal's failed attempt to snag him with a hefty £60m bid.
Emery expressed his desire to keep Watkins within the Villa squad, stating that it was great news to have offers from other clubs. However, he also acknowledged that in the world of football, any player could be up for grabs if it is deemed beneficial for all parties involved.
But make no mistake, if there is to be any deal for Watkins, it will come with a high price. Emery emphasized that the club holds the young striker in high regard and he is an integral part of their team.
After Arsenal's Champions League game, their manager Mikel Arteta was also asked about the Watkins rumours. However, he remained tight-lipped on the matter, stating that he couldn't comment on it. He did, however, express his confidence in the club and their continuous efforts to improve.
Only time will tell if any developments will arise in this situation. For now, it seems that Watkins will continue to don the Villa jersey, much to the delight of Emery and the club's fans.
