£12m player now suggests he does not want to join Aston Villa despite approach from the Villans

Aston Villa now look set for disappointment after a target for Unai Emery suggested he does not want to join the Villans.

Monchi – Director of Football at Villa Park – is working hard to prepare Aston Villa for the UEFA Champions League next season, although the Spaniard may have to explore other targets as🍰 he looks to improve the defence.

So, which Aston Villa target has now suggested he does not want to link up with Unai Emery? Let’s take a look…

Denzel Dumfries suggests he does not want Aston Villa move

A story from recently claimed that the Villans had approached Inter Milan to sign Denzel Dumfries.

The Netherlands international has been a target for Aston Villa across the last 12 months, although the Dutchman has now expressed hi🌜s love for Inter Milan and a desire to stay at the San Siro.

Fabrizio Romano quotes Dumfries as saying: “I think my future will be at Inter, yes. It’s a top club and I love it, I feel at home at Inꦐter. We are in negotiations over new deal, there’s new ownersh♔ip now so we will see what happens, but Inter is my family, I really love the club.”

Therefore – barring a shock development – it sounds as if the defender is highly likely to remain in Milan heading into the 2024/25 campai꧑gn.

That will be sure to upset a few Aston Villa fans, as Dumfries has been described as one of the best right-backs in the world, and is a real attacking threat down that flank with 🐻ten goal involvements last season.

Change looks set to happen anyway

Whether it is Dumfries or somebody else who bolsters the right-back department at Aston Vill♏a, change looks set to happen regar🔯dless.

Respected journalist Dean Jones recently claimed that Emery is happy to let Matty Cash leave Villa Park this summer, so if that exit materialis☂es, we would expect a new right-back to be signed.
