The 23-year-old has struggled for regular opportunities at the Premier League club, and he needs to play more often. Gianluigi Donnarumma is currently the first-choice goalkeeper at the club, and Trafford will need to leave if he wants to play every week. According to reports, Tottenham, Newcastle and Aston Villa might be able to provide him with an exit route in the coming months.

Aston Villa attacker Leon Bailey is on loan at Italian club Roma. However, the Jamaican has not managed to perform at a high level. He has had injury problems as well. Bailey has played just 188 minutes in all competitions and Roma could look to part ways with him in January. They are interested in signing Joshua Zirkzee from Manchester United and they are hoping to free up funds to sign the player, as per Corriere dello Sport.

He is set to undergo a medical before joining in January, with the deal initially worth 8.7m plus a further 1.8m in performance-related add-ons. Gremio, who finished ninth in Brazil's Serie A this season, have also agreed a 10% sell-on clause.

Aston Villa have had an excellent season so far, and they would ideally like to add players in January to improve their chances of a Champions League finish in the Premier League table. However, it will be very difficult for this to happen. In the summer, Aston Villa struggled to make signings until Jacob Ramsey joined Newcastle United, a move that was influenced by the club's PSR position.

Aston Villa are looking to add more quality to the attacking unit, and they have identified Callum Wilson as a target, as per GMS. The player joined West Ham United on a 12-month deal, and he is now fit and playing for the London club. The 33-year-old is an experienced campaigner, and Aston Villa could do with his quality and experience.

We always go under the radar, he said. When you're not a traditional big club, you go under the radar naturally. We just do our business in silence. If people want to speak about us or they don't, we don't care we know what we've got, how good we can be and the task we've got. We just keep pushing and trying to get better.

The only moment of certainty came from the foot of Boubacar Kamara, the midfielder arrowing a shot into the top corner from 20 yards to settle the game. It lifted them to third in the Premier League, a point behind Manchester City in second, and, while talk of a unexpected title fight may seem fanciful at this stage, Villa could soon be in the conversation as Arsenal's nearest challengers.

Villa forward Donyell Malen was struck on the head by a plastic cup thrown from the away end while he was celebrating his 27th-minute opener. The Dutchman's head was cut but he did not receive medical treatment.
