Sancho Cleared for Bologna Second Leg as Emery Shuts Down Transfer Questions
Emery keeps the focus on Aston Villa’s Europa League push rather than the winger’s next move.
Overview
- Unai Emery said the Manchester United loanee has recovered from a shoulder injury and is available to be selected against Bologna.
- The winger missed two matches after hurting his shoulder in a friendly against Elche during the March break.
- Aston Villa take a 3-1 lead into the Europa League quarter-final second leg, which offers a route to face Porto or Nottingham Forest in the semis.
- Pressed on a permanent move, Emery said talking about individual futures does not make sense and he emphasized consistency from Sancho.
- Sancho is set to be a free agent at season’s end, with reports linking him to a Borussia Dortmund return and Villa’s interest portrayed as dependent on sustained form.
