I honestly can't believe he's done that. I imagine he would be one of our key players this season. On SSN the PFA released a statement saying he only handed a request in to make the board offer him a new contract that 'reflected his development and value to the club' and that the information should not have been leaked to the public.
Villa have apparently got a £9m offer on the table, but Newcastle have said they have yet to receive a bid. I hope it stays that way tbh 'cos I really don't want him to leave.
