That looks the most likely option. He will stay at Villa and an agreement will be made to pay us the difference between his current value and the buy back price.

If he’s worth £40m in the current market then why not bring him back for the lower price and see how he goes here?

I reckon Villa are likely to bank the 27m, more than double what they paid and they will go back into the market. He is a good player for them but 40m on a defensive mid for Villa is a staggering amount.That looks the most likely option. He will stay at Villa and an agreement will be made to pay us the difference between his current value and the buy back price.
I think he`s top class. Villa fans absolutely love him, seen plenty of people saying he`s already top 5 DMs in the league. Pep clearly rated him, he would probably be playing for us these days if he could get a work permit back then
Decent pace (easily quicker than Rodri), good in tight spaces, great defender and a good passer as well. Already a complete midfielder. £27.5m is an absolute bargain (by buying him and selling him to Villa we`ve already made a 5m profit on him). Personally, I would like either Luiz or Zakaria to replace Dinho when he leaves. Locatelli looks good, but he`s pretty similar to Rodri, which is not a bad thing, but I think it would be an advantage having 2 very different DM options.When word reached Pep Guardiola in 2018 that work-permit issues were preventing Douglas Luiz from playing for #ManCity, he sent video footage to the Home Office explaining how the midfielder would be important to his side in the months and years ahead.

Interesting concept..Has that ever happened regards a player before ? None spring to mind, but if feasible a good agreement.. Like Zakaria personally.That looks the most likely option. He will stay at Villa and an agreement will be made to pay us the difference between his current value and the buy back price.
Hope so, top playerWe'll probably knock it off the Grealish fee!
