Aston Villa manager Unai Emery has revealed that Jaden Philogene is going to Ipswich on their terms.

Ahead of Villa’s FA Cup clash with West Ham United, Emery discussed 22-year-old Philogene, who is set to join Ipswich.

Emery said, “I believe in Jaden Philogene, but we are, of course, always trying to get the best for the club, for the squad, the team, and the players.

“If he is leaving, it is because it is good for those three options.

“The club is working (in January, more generally).”
