Report shares Aston Villa’s January plan for Louie Barry and Jaden Philogene-Bidace
Aston Villa plan to hold onto Louie Barry and Jaden Philogene-Bidace in January, despite the pair attracting plenty of interest from clubs looking to take the teenagers on loan, .
The pair have established themselves as two of the most exciting talents coming through at Villa Park right now.
Barry has scored four times in Premier League 2 this season. That included a brace against Fulham towards the end of November.
Meanwhile, Philogene-Bidace has three goals and one assist in the same competition. Perhaps unsurprisingly therefore, the pair are attracting attention ahead of next month’s window.
, a number of EFL clubs are monitoring Barry and Philogene-Bidace, along with several others in Villa’s youth ranks.
However, the report claims that the two youngsters are set to stay. It is suggested that Villa want them to continue their development where they are.
TBR View: Villa right to not to rush pair’s development
There are signs which suggest that the likes of Barry and Philogene-Bidace have a chance of breaking into the first-team at Villa Park at some stage in the future.
Part of their development may involve going out on loan at some stage. However, there is little reason for Villa to rush them.
Admittedly, the right loan move could be huge for their careers. Jack Grealish was 18 when he joined Notts County for a season. And he went on to make 17 Premier League appearances the following year.
But right now, Villa feel that the pair would be better off staying put.
