It has been reported that Conor Gallagher may be on the move from his current club Chelsea this summer. Aston Villa, who are looking to strengthen their squad for the upcoming season, are said to be open to offers for their defender Diego Carlos. This could potentially free up funds for them to make a move for Gallagher, who has caught their eye as a potential new addition.
However, if Villa are unable to offload Carlos, they may be forced to part ways with one of their promising young talents, Jacob Ramsey. The midfielder has been garnering attention from some of the top teams in the Premier League, making him a valuable asset to the club. But in order to balance their books and comply with financial regulations, Villa may have to make a tough decision and let go of Ramsey.
Despite suffering a 5-0 defeat at the hands of Crystal Palace on Sunday, Villa's spirits are still high as they will be competing in the Champions League next season for the first time in over four decades. Manager Unai Emery is looking to add depth to his squad in the upcoming transfer window, with Gallagher being a surprise target. However, the club is being cautious about overspending and potentially breaching financial rules.
According to reports, Villa will have to make one major sale in order to maintain a stable financial situation. And it seems that Carlos is the player who will make way, with AC Milan showing interest in his services. The Brazilian defender joined Villa in 2022 for a hefty fee and has been a regular in their starting lineup, but injuries have hindered his playing time.
Should Villa be unable to offload Carlos, they may have to consider selling Ramsey, much to their dismay. The young midfielder has been sidelined with a toe injury since March but is highly regarded by the club. However, with interest from Liverpool, Tottenham, and Newcastle, Villa may have to reconsider their stance on keeping Ramsey.
Meanwhile, Chelsea are also facing their own struggles with complying with financial regulations. This could potentially lead to the departure of Gallagher, who is also attracting interest from Tottenham. The England midfielder has just one year left on his contract and Chelsea may have to sell him in order to meet the regulations.
As the transfer window approaches, all eyes will be on the potential movements of these players and how it will impact the respective clubs. It will be an interesting summer for both Chelsea and Aston Villa as they strive to strengthen their squads while also staying within the financial boundaries.
