‘Electric’ £21m star now undergoing medical after agreeing deal to sign for Ipswich Town this month
TBR Football can exclusively confirm that Jaden Philogene is undergoing his medical in Suffolk after agreeing a move to Ipswich Town.
Making a mere four starts in all competitions this season, the 22-year-old’s return to his boyhood club Aston Villa this summer has underwhelmed to say the least.
Philogene’s move to Aston Villa was lauded as a brilliant piece of business as was one of the breakout stars in the Championship last season, registering 12 goals and six assists for Hull City🐓.
But after spending just six months under Unai Emery, Jaden Philogeneꦺ has the chance to revitalise his career under Kieran McKenna.
Jaden Philogene undergoes medical as he nears Ipswich Town move
TBR Football’s chief correspondent Graeme Bailey can reveal that Aston Villa have accepted a £21 million fee from Ipswich Town plus add-ons to offload Philogene, as he is undergoing a medical ahead oꦫf the transfer.
Ipswich have agreed the fee to sell the English winger, who garnered interest from various clubs, including Everton, who made approaches to Villa after discove💝ring that 🍌he was available for a transfer last month.
TBR Football previously confirmed that Aston Villa are expected to sign Donyell Malen from Borussia Dortmund as they intend to strengthen their attack this Jꦺanuary.
TBR Football understands that Ipswich’s interest in signing Ben Doak ultimately led to Liverpool rejecting their £16 million bid to sign him, leading the T🐷ractor Boys to re-ignite their interest in Philogene from the🌊 summer.

While Ipswich were unable to sign Philogene – who Micah Richards lauded as he decided to head to Villa Park a few months ago, Unai Emery’s side have decided to part ways with the tricky winger as he has faile꧂ಌd to make an impression since his move.
Ipswich Town-bound Jaden Philogene dubbed “electric”
In July 2023, Tim Howard hailed Philogene’s talent and advised Unai Emery to give him a chance.
“If [Unai] Emery wants my opinion, this kid is 𒀰ready. I mean he’s electric, he’s fun to watch, always on the front foot.
“And by the wꦇay, we’ve seen in the o🙈ther games, he’s very willing to do the dirty work and track back and get on the hip of his outside defender and that’s what you want from a young player.”
Ipswich Town supporters will be hoping that Kieran McKenna can get a tune out of the talented technician.
