Uraguayan winger Gaston Pereiro agent in serious talks with Villa.
Asking price 6 million.
Rated highly by pundits and reviews.

Dave the way things are going with our signings if they don't come almost immediately could be to late .
16 Jan 2020 23:44:42
This Samatta isn’t exactly inspiring me tbh!
If he was so good then why’d we not try sign him in the summer instead of Wesley?
Considering Samatta outscored him by a country mile, 30+ goals!?
What does that say about us and our scouts!?
I’m always excited about new players and the potential they might have but this is yet another gamble we can not afford to take.
Pedro and Giroud! Perfect link up players for Jack and will win us games. Get them in!

We can't do anything if the players don't want to come it's not FIFA or pes where you can sign any1.

Shane, I think you would agree, Deano gambled when he took Maupay to Brentford, considering his previous record.
We all take gambles in life, if they work your wonderful, if they don`t your a jerk.
I think under the circumstances, and the current situation with the availability of players, 8.5 million is going to be a bargain if the lad delivers.
My concern is whether the players we have, and the system we play is going to give Samatta the support he will need.
I am quietly confident he will score goals for us, but we still need another striker to either partner him or sit behind him.

Villa date, what's wrong with you for crying out loud, we've got hogan back, job's a gooden! Lol!
17 Jan 2020 18:55:56
Shut up 82, got me there mate, hahaha.
17 Jan 2020 20:27:21
Villadave- see how quickly we forget star quality when it's at our fingertips! -personally, I'd stick trezeguet up front, eye for a goal, a bit of trickery and with his pace, I reckon defenders would get caught out resulting in 1 or 2 penalties coming our way, worth a gamble in our predicament I think- there again, who knows what will happen before the window closes!
17 Jan 2020 21:02:59
I happen to think that`s another good shout 82.
I don`t` dislike Trez to be honest, and I think a good run in the side would build him and his confidence.
He works hard and can be direct, worth a punt at Brighton.
Mark and I were talking about sticking a defender up top, but thinking about it Trez would probably be the better option.

Guys I get this jan transfer window isn’t ideal but the way I see it is that I’d prefer we play Kodjia or give the younger players game time rather than spending £10M on players who perhaps are no hopers.
If we are going to spend money and risk FFP punishment then make sure we give ourselves a chance of survival RATHER than spending 20-30Mill on 3 players who are punts in the dark which is what it seems is happening with us.
16 Jan 2020 20:39:46
Kodjia having medical in Qatar tomorrow.

Just listened to Ashley Preece statement, Ally Sammata was always the target this window.
He also says another striker to come in maybe on loan.
16 Jan 2020 15:15:33
Hi Ed, It looks very much like we are about to sign Sammata.
Am I correct in assuming if deal goes through on time, he would need a work permit, if so that would rule him out for the Brighton game?
{Ed002's Note - Samatta would need international clearance and a Work Permit and that would take a few days - although a WP can be applied for in advance.}
16 Jan 2020 13:08:42
Dean Smith not at training this morning, was in Belgium supposedly to bring Ally Samatta back over with him. Villa want this wrapped up by this evening for training tomorrow. UTV.
16 Jan 2020 13:57:13
Villa also having a news conference shortly with no set time, we can all hope it will be Smith with a signing.
If i remember correctly Villa normally do conferences the day before, so this is reason to be hopeful.

Just seen on the net aswell don't know much about him but klopp rates him.
16 Jan 2020 17:06:39
Certainly knows where the goal is - last season he got 23 in 38 games, which is a 61% hit rate.
16 Jan 2020 09:00:28
Hearing that if we loose to Brighton this weekend Smith will be sacked as our owners are not happy. Maybe this is why transfers seem slow. ?
16 Jan 2020 11:01:40
You have heard nothing, and this just another wild guess because of the current situation, which unfortunately could come true.
16 Jan 2020 12:54:25
One thing is for sure, usually when kingy speaks believe the opposite, however as Dave comments it could well still happen. However Deano's future won't be in the public domain till it actually happens. I personally believe should we lose to both Brighton and Watford it will probably happen.
16 Jan 2020 13:52:45
Kingy up to your old tricks. When one of your rumours don't happen. Make up another rubbish one quickly so we forget about the other one.
In Dean smith i trust.

Don’t know a lot about the Chinese situation but the new rules there say players can’t earn more than 40k a week?
Surely a good opportunity to go and get some players?
Carrasco?
Sandro Wagner?
14 Jan 2020 22:45:21
Still can't believe we haven't tried to unsettle mitrovic.
15 Jan 2020 15:37:42
His bloody injured so his no use to us know.
14 Jan 2020 22:42:53
Any listening to Sam alardace on sky he makes complete sense on how to play and stay in the league he makes complete sense unlike our manager who continues to play in way the players can't play like playing out the back.

Come on Villa4eva, no-one on here will give big Sam a chance, even though he helped pioneer player recovery programmes which he brought back from his time in the usa;even though he brought back the idea which was the forerunner to player stats, and of course;as far as I'm aware he was the first British manager to have deal with a changing room of multiple foreign players, their agents and their sometimes bizarre expectations.
AND this he did to a very successful standard, you could say he provided the blueprint for future teams and how they blended both domestic and foreign players together to make it work, but of course he never received the plaudits he deserved for this, you could even say he was the first real 'cultured' British manager, so it makes me laugh when people call him a dinosaur.
what happened at Everton is always brought up, but look what he walked into;a club in trouble and another rescue mission; which he did; yes the football the next season wasn't vintage, but the club was going through a transition, look at Marco silva;spent big and still got the sack for playing dire football, at any club when the old guard don't want to embrace a new idea, the result is always stagnation until they're sold or the get the manager sacked.
remember when big Sam was brought in at Sunderland, and he had jermaine defoe as his only recognised striker, also defoe had an injury remember, and he still masterminded them staying up! -so for those on here who slate big Sam, your talking out of your rectums, his record speaks for itself, it's not a flash in the pan, and if you still call him a dinosaur, then clearly you must dense between your ears.
if deano is turfed out there's probably 1 or 2 other managers who could save us, but Big Sam is definitely the best of them all no doubt, some of you on here smack of arrogance when it comes to keeping us up, smell the coffee, we're in the fight from here on in, get your heads round it, it's happening.
15 Jan 2020 07:19:18
That your view, co82 but him and pullis could keep us up in my view the players need telling properly not being pampered like they are, like at wilder at shef utd old school says it how it is and hard work and effort and fight is in his team and tactically 1 of the best I've seen from a British manager, but he wouldn't come too villa it's madness yes we're a bigger club but we are a sinking ship, that's why I'd bring in Sam, pullis, they would organise us and make us hard to beat, and who cares if No1 on here or villa fans don't want him it's about staying in this league that matters and having the best manager to do it and Dean Smith isn't the man forget he's a villa man and he took us up big deal simple facts, he's spent 140mil on crap, his team's can't defend, he's to stubborn to change his ways of thinking, we don't have a plan a, b, or c we just hope jck pulls something out his hat, we're a one man team, we have no style of play or identity, I struggle to see what villa game plan is when, watching us, and last point I think the players have lost confidence in him they proved that on Sunday, I'd rather change now and have a chance of staying up with the teams were playing around us with a Sam or a pullis, or Warnock we'd have a much better chance, because with this manager were going bck dwn I wish people would wake up we are a prem club with a chance and a slim one of staying up but people would rather go dwn with deano because he's one of us then they would say he'd bring strait bck up with no jck no mggin no Ming's or Heaton and Engles they would all be sold, but that's my view were in it together but it's not going to end well if some how we stay up deano should be knighted.

Co82 Everton were 8th when Sam was sacked and they wasn't happy I'd take that all day long look where they are now they rnt going to finish higher than that ever in my view and as a villa fan we can only dream of top 8 finishes.
16 Jan 2020 01:45:29
Bang on Villa4eva, 8th would be like winning a cup! -the older I get the more I think the top brass at villa park have taken the path of least resistance.
