aston villa investment

Sport Witness covered a report yesterday It was revealed that Aston Villa owner V Sport has acquired a 30% minority stake in the French club.

Sport.fr explains that this was done through a capital increase that values ​​the Savoyard club at around €15m. To his knowledge, no one actually saw the investment coming.

The partnership has been working behind the scenes thanks to an already well-established collaboration. Aston Villa sent young players on loan, shared ways and common ambitions.

Now the partnership is official, but nothing will change from the government’s side. Sébastien Faraglia remains chairman, Philippe Rey-Gorez is still the majority shareholder, and Laurent Guyot continues to manage the team.

Focus on youth development

Instead the center of the project will be youth development. And Annecy is planning to build a brand new training center to aid the process. This could see the Aston Villa youngster move to France on loan to aid his development.

This is something they have done with other partnerships. For example, many youngsters have spent time at Unai Emery’s Real Union. Plans may already be underway on that front, placing youth at the center of the project.

For Annecy, the ‘dream of reaching the top flight’ is getting closer. For him it is a process that is ‘slowly but surely’. They finished seventh in Ligue 2 last season and are now promoted. Only four points separated them from the top six and eight from the top four.

The investment from Aston Villa owners V Sports is prompting them to dream big anyway, even if their focus will be on youth development for the time being.

Juventus have identified Liverpool goalkeeper Alisson as a target for the summer but will face an ‘almost titanic task’ to sign the Brazilian.

Bianconeri praise Brazil’s world-class profile, yet every indicator points to a mission bordering on impossible According to Tuttomercatoweb.

Alisson is one of the most revered goalkeepers in Europe, a proven match-winner whose presence transforms Liverpool’s defensive stability. The Reds have already moved to secure themselves a deal with him, recently extending the Brazilian’s contract for another year.

Contract extension complicates Juventus plans

His current deal now expires next summer instead, preventing Liverpool from leaving on a free this summer.

This makes matters a little more difficult for Juventus. The Italian giants are looking for specific solutions for next season.

Alisson’s experience, leadership and even familiarity with Serie A could make him an ideal profile, at least on paper.

But Liverpool’s move to extend Alisson’s contract has made things difficult. Juventus will now have to pay a fee for the Brazilian. And there is no evidence that Liverpool want to sell in any way this summer.

Transfer fee and Liverpool’s stance

If the fee is right the Reds could be tempted as they already have Giorgio Mamardashvili waiting in the wings. Alisson is currently worth €17m transfer market. However, there is no indication that Juventus would be willing to pay that much of a fee.

Instead, according to TMW, they see signing Alisson as an ‘almost titanic task’. This shows that they can try but if they don’t like the response from Liverpool then they won’t go much further in their efforts.

The Italian club already has a list of options for that position. This also includes David De Gea, despite not having a good season with Fiorentina. However, this is seen as a result of Fiorentina’s poor season rather than De Gea’s departure.

For now, Alisson is a pipe dream, but Liverpool have a firm grip on him. As a result, the Bianconeri’s pursuit looks more like an ambition than a realistic summer scenario.
