Samuel Iling-Junior has only just arrived at Aston Villa, but it’s become clear over the past week that an exit was very possible before the summer window closed.
The 20-year-old was part of the deal which saw Douglas Luiz move to Juventus earlier this summer, being a makeweight in the transfer along with Enzo Barrenechea.
Neither were involved for Unai Emery’s side in their opening Premier League match of the season against West Ham United, and Iling-Junior is now returning to Italian football.
There’s no indication of the costs involved here, but surely Aston Villa will have been looking for a loan fee and also the player’s wages to be covered by Bologna. That should become clearer soon.
Hopefully the youngster can progress further and return ready for Premier League football.
