Could do with shifting this guy really. Could offset some incomings.

Id rather look to build the team around him, we genuinely have a world class player that was under utilised last year, give him the structure to play the way he needs to and it'll transform the team

Would be funny if we then signed Philly Gene for less than the money Hull were asking for, as part of this deal.

If that's true I wonder if we'll get Philogene on loan as part of the deal?

Philogene can’t be sold twice within the same window, can he?
Loan it will be

Why would Villa buy a player for £13m just to loan him out to us?

To see if he can perform in the prem, then sell him for way more than £13m/keep him for themselves

Things might have changed in the last 30 years, but didn't Unsworth get sold to Villa, then us in the space of 2 days?

Haha, yeah, I think it was more like just over a week, but I was so pleased about that at the time.
Also, if they flip Philogene after a successful season in the prem, it would do wonders for their psr

My Le Tissier theory was that they buy him for £13m, we then get him for them as a sweetener in the Onana deal for less than the £18m we were willing to pay Hull.
For clarification however I don't believe this.
