According to reports from The Times, the proposal also involved Spurs midfielder Giovani Lo Celso as part of the swap offer.
Aston Villa’s decision comes amidst their need to navigate Premier League profitability and sustainability regulations, which impose strict financial limits on clubs.

With the possibility of increasing these limits under discussion, Aston Villa is currently focusing on balancing their books through player sales.
Jacob Ramsey, who is valued between £40 million and £50 million by the club, has attracted interest from Tottenham as they seek to strengthen their midfield options.
Jacob Ramsey endured a challenging season marked by injury, contributing to just two goals in the league.
Aston Villa’s strategic approach also includes considering offers for other players like Douglas Luiz to ensure compliance with financial regulations while bolstering their squad where necessary.
