Aston Villa have just one month remaining to complete their summer transfer business after already adding three players to Unai Emery's squad. Here is a look at the key tasks that could define a dream end to the window.
Tammy Abraham's Uncertain Future
Tammy Abraham's future at Villa is uncertain just six months after returning to the club in the January transfer window. The striker's situation remains unresolved as the summer deadline approaches, leaving Emery with a potential gap in his attacking options.
Joao Palhinha Available
Bayern Munich sporting director Max Eberl has confirmed that Joao Palhinha is free to leave the club this summer. The midfielder could provide a boost to Villa's engine room if a deal can be struck before the window closes.
Brian Madjo Wildcard Hinges on Legal Battle
Villa teenager Brian Madjo could be a wildcard for Emery next season, but his involvement rests entirely on a legal battle against FIFA at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS). The outcome of that case will determine whether the young talent can feature for the first team.
Interest in Nicolas Jackson
Villa are interested in doing business with Chelsea once again this summer by signing Nicolas Jackson. However, the deal is not straightforward, with complications making it difficult to finalise.
Bid for Allan Rejected
Villa have reportedly seen a €30 million bid for Palmeiras winger Allan rejected. The Brazilian remains a target, but the club may need to improve their offer or move on to alternatives.
