About our Aston Villa Transfer News
Latest news on Aston Villa transfers, January window updates and market activity, covering deals, targets and breaking stories from Villa Park.
The January 2025 transfer window has seen significant movement at Aston Villa, headlined by the £71m departure of Jhon Durán to Al Nassr. The club has reinforced their squad with the arrivals of Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund for £21.5m, Andrés García from Levante for £6m, and secured an eye-catching loan deal for Marcus Rashford from Manchester United. Their acquisitions for the month were rounded out by the last-minute loan signing of Axel Disasi from Chelsea to bolster the squads defensive depth.
The window has seen several other notable departures, including Jaden Philogene's £20m move to Ipswich Town and Diego Carlos joining Fenerbahçe for £8.5m. Unai Emery's side has also been active in the loan market, with Emiliano Buendía joining Bayer Leverkusen, Joe Gauci moving to Barnsley, and several youth prospects securing developmental moves including Kobei Moore to Fleetwood Town.
Villa's transfer strategy reflects their ambitious push for Champions League qualification, with the club currently sitting eighth in the Premier League. The acquisition of established talents like Malen and Rashford demonstrates their intent to strengthen their attacking options following Durán's departure, while García's arrival provides additional defensive depth as they compete across multiple competitions.
Under the ownership of V Sports (Nassef Sawiris, Wes Edens & Atairos), Villa have shown their ability to both invest in new talent and command significant fees for departing players. The January window continues their pattern of strategic recruitment, balancing immediate first-team needs with smart business decisions, as evidenced by the substantial profit made on Durán's sale.
