According to reports, Aston Villa is open to selling Ollie Watkins striker this summer, in the midst of an interest growing Informed of football.
Since Rashford’s passage to Aston Villa at the beginning of the year, Watkins has seen his play time be limited to the club.
Manager Unai Emery has favored Rashford in the team of his team on Watkins, who had been the club striker for a long time.
As Rashford has acted well in the role and if its transfer becomes permanent to the club, it can open the door to Watkins to consider its future and think of a distance from the club.
Ex -Villa Mick Brown, who also served as a main search engine at Manchester United and Blackburn, revealed that Liverpool, Manchester United, Chelsea, and Arsenal are closely followed by the situation of Watkins.
“I made a lot of effort to convince Villa to sign Watkins when I was there.” Brown told Football Insider.
“The reason for this is that it is different from most forwards at this time because it always wants to stretch the defense, to derive and run back.
“He has done very well in his time in Villa and showed that he can also do it in the team of England.
“There have always been few signs of questioning about their control and coherence in the face of the goal.
“But it never stops working and improving and I think this has been clear, and it marks a lot.
“So as far as I listen, Man United, Liverpool and Chelsea have been taking a look at him, and so did the arsenal after they tried to sign it.
“What happened to Villa is that Marcus Rashford has entered and plays the same role as Watkins.
“It seems that he has returned to the best and, therefore, is chosen to begin some of the great games for Emery.
“Watkins is still a part of his plans, but he will not be happy playing the second fiddle in Rashford if they make this agreement permanent.
“If this is the case, I would expect these four teams I mentioned before making a movement.
“Villa will be ready for this, they know the interest and if an offer that considers it acceptable, it may be left to leave the club.
“This would leave the space for Rashford to come in and probably would like another.”
What is then for Man United and Arsenal Target Watkins?
If Villa causes Rashford to move permanent to the club, United could ask Villa Watkins in a swap agreement.
It is a movement that would adapt to the two parties, as the two clubs would get a player they need.
