Team Talk reports on Everton's negotiations with Aston Villa for the permanent signing of Jaden Philogene. Everton have opened talks with Aston Villa over the permanent signing of Jaden Philogene. The move could be permanent rather than a loan, and Everton are trying to make it happen with this formula. Everton’s sporting director Kevin Thelwell is a big admirer of Philogene and is keen to sign him this month. Ipswich Town is also showing interest in the winger.

Jaden Philogene, who plays as a winger for Aston Villa, was transferred from Hull City for 16 million euros last summer. Although coach Unai Emery has used him sparingly, with Philogene playing only 534 minutes across all competitions this season, Everton, which is currently 16th in the Premier League, has begun talks to acquire the English youth international. His contract with the Birmingham-based Aston Villa is valid until June 2029. The player's opinion on the potential move is not publicly known, but it is noted that he returned to his formative club just six months ago.
