Villa will also make a £150,000-per-week offer to the midfielder in an effort to persuade him to remain.

City have already gained £50 million by selling peripheral players, on top of the £45 million earned with Leroy Sane’s transfer to Bayern Munich last season, and Bernardo Silva may possibly go to help raise cash.
