Ipswich agree £20m deal for Villa winger Philogene

Ipswich Town have agreed a £20m deal to sign Aston Villa winger Jaden Philogene.

The 22-year-old is due for a medical at Portman Road, which will end his brief six-month return to Villa Park.

Philogene also had European interest, including from La Liga, but Ipswich are due to finally end their pursuit of the England Under-21 international, with boss Kieran McKenna's influence proving crucial.

Ipswich agreed a fee of about £18m with Hull in the summer only for Villa to activate their buy-back option - having sold Philogene to the Tigers in 2023.
