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.
