All Completed Aston Villa Transfers in 2026/27

Aston Villa head into the new Premier League season on the back of arguably their most successful campaign under Unai Emery yet, having won the Europa League in 2026 to add continental silverware to the club’s recent resurgence.

With Champions League football on the agenda again and NSWE continuing to back Emery in the market, Villa Park has been busy this summer – helped along by a club-record sale that’s freed up significant funds to reinvest.

Here, Football FanCast tracks every confirmed Aston Villa signing and departure for the 2026/27 campaign.

New Aston Villa Signings 2026/27

Johan Manzambi arrives from Freiburg in a deal worth up to £59.5m if add-ons are met, becoming Villa’s club-record signing after starring for Switzerland at the 2026 World Cup. Upgrades in midfield became a matter of urgency after Amadou Onana’s ACL injury and the sale of Morgan Rogers.

Joao Gomes also reinforces that area, joining from Wolves for around £38m, adding further steel and energy to Emery’s options in the middle of the park.

Modou Keba Cisse completes a low-cost move from Austrian side LASK, with the young Senegalese centre-back brought in as developing depth at the back.

Alejandro Garnacho has joined on loan from Chelsea, giving Emery another attacking option out wide as he looks to find a fresh start following his struggles at Old Trafford and Stamford Bridge.

Aston Villa Departures 2026/27

Morgan Rogers has completed a huge move to Chelsea following a transfer tug of war between the Blues and London rivals Arsenal.

Youri Tielemans has joined Manchester United after his release clause was triggered, forcing Villa to cash in as they continue to balance the books.

Donyell Malen has sealed a move to Roma, while Enzo Barrenechea departs for Benfica after failing to fully establish himself in Emery’s midfield plans.

Lewis Dobbin has joined Championship side Southampton, with Andres Garcia and Oliwier Zych both heading out on loan to Getafe and Vitoria Guimaraes respectively to continue their development.

Who is Aston Villa’s Record Signing?

Aston Villa’s record signing is Johan Manzambi, who joined from Freiburg in the summer of 2026 for a fee of £59.5m.

The exciting young midfielder very nearly joined Newcastle before Villa hijacked the deal, and becomes the third £50m+ signing in the club’s history following Moussa Diaby and Onana.
