Aston Villa are pushing to sign 24-year-old Ruben Loftus-Cheek on loan from Chelsea amid competition from Southampton and West Ham.

However, having already spent £ 85million, Dean Smith is only interested in making a loan deal.
Despite interest in both players, league rules state that only one loan can take place between the same two Premier League clubs.
Given that Loftus-Cheek was excluded from Frank Lampard’s squad for their game against Liverpool on Sunday, Villa would prioritize the 24-year-old this summer.
Villa fans are said to be excited at the prospect of seeing the 10-year-old England international join their squad.
