A current Aston Villa player is apparently determined to extend his stay at the club.
There has been speculation in recent weeks about the future of Lucas Digne, with information last month that the hierarchy of Villa Park could be ready to accept offers as low as 5 million pounds sterling for the French left.
He was 32 years old last weekend and is now in the last 12 months of his current contract, although the former man of Everton and Barcelona does not yet seem ready to call the time on his charm in the midlands.
Worthy plans to hold contractual interviews with Aston Villa
According to Jacob Tanswell for athletics, worthy “ plans to hold interviews under contract soon ” while he seeks to extend his time with Aston Villa.
The Frenchman – who was a coherent starter through the reign of Unai Emery – came to the club in January 2022 and was often preferred to Ian Maathsen considerably younger in the departure XI last season.
However, as Birmingham Mail noted, the 32 -year -old man is among the most upscale of those currently on the wage bill of Villans – Capology cites his current weekly salary at £ 120,000, 80% of what Emiliano Martinez, Youri Tielemans and Boubacar Kamara employees bring home.
Aston Villa will she overthrow the apparent desire of Digne for a new agreement?
Although Digne has apparently specified its position, it remains to be seen whether the desire to renew a contract will be reciprocal by the hierarchy of Aston Villa.
Some may call into question the wisdom of committing substantial resources to a player who will be 33 years old next summer, is one of the highest wages of the club and has a lot of coverage in his position.
Others might think that the apparent desire of French to continue at Villa Park should be rewarded by a new agreement, in particular given its importance for the team under Emery.
Indeed, Digne already made an important impression before the arrival of Spanish, with the predecessor Steven Gerrard in lyric wax on the `fantastic ” performance of the left back for Aston Villa.
The ball seems to have been placed in the court of NSWE while the club and the players approach an important crossroads when it comes to deciding whether a new contract is offered or not.
