Aston Villa's move for Chelsea winger Alejandro Garnacho is expected to succeed, after they proposed a loan for the Argentine with an obligation to buy if certain conditions are met.

The club made enquiries during conversations over Morgan Rogers’ £117m move. The England star has now signed a contract at Stamford Bridge.

Chelsea have been holding out for a permanent sale around £40m for Garnacho as Manchester United are also due a sell-on percentage.

Roma have also offered a loan with options who was of interest to Villa before he left Manchester United last summer.

Villa remain keen to sign Nicolas Jackson from Chelsea and had been monitoring developments with Crysencio Summerville at West Ham, who have today accepted a £68m bid from Al-Hilal having had an offer of £39m plus add-ons from Roma.
