The January transfer window presents an opportunity for Emery’s team to solidify their bid for Champions League football, as they are currently having a fantastic season.
Villa is reportedly in need of a full-back this month, and Kosta Nedeljkovic from Red Star Belgrade is close to completing a move. However, they still need to strengthen their squad for the present.
If Villa can secure an experienced striker this month, Jhon Duran may be loaned out before the window closes. However, to finance these moves, the club will likely need to sell some players, and Calum Chambers seems to be nearing an exit.
Despite his pedigree, Chambers has been told he’s free to leave Villa this month. He has failed to make an impact and doesn’t seem to fit the profile of a full-back. With competition for places, he doesn’t stand a chance against other defenders.
Villa is now interested in signing a forward from Serie A, which could provide a much-needed boost to their attack. Emery has lofty ambitions for his team this January, and Chambers is not a part of those plans.
