The writing has been on the wall for some time in regard to Wesley Moraes’ situation at Aston Villa. The 24-year-old has struggled for form, fitness and playing time ever since he made the switch from Club Brugge in 2019, so it’s no surprise he could be on his way out this summer.
Dean Smith prefers Ollie Watkins and new-boy Danny Ings in attack, so he’s willing to loan Wesley out for the campaign so he can get much-needed playing time. Gregg Evans of The Athletic says Club Brugge are bringing Wesley back to the Belgium, though he didn’t mention if the deal included a buying option.
