According to reports, Aston Villa are keen on signing Ross Barkley from Luton Town. The midfielder had a bad spell at Chelsea and ended up moving to Ligue 1 side, OGC Nice on a season-long Loan before joining Luton Town for the 2023/2024 season as a free agent. Despite his incredible performances which saw him contribute 11 goals in 32 league games, he was unable to keep the club in the top flight. However, his performances have earned him a lot of interest from top clubs including Aston Villa. Emery’s team which qualified for the Champions League are looking to improve their squad depth and Barkley seem the perfect fit.
