NSWE have pumped in some serious money at Villa Park following the club’s return to the Premier League, with Villa spending in excess of £300m over the past three seasons.
It now seems as if Sawiris and Edens are turning their attention to the MLS, looking to create a 30th franchise in the States. They are thought to be close to forming Las Vegas Villains in a move that will reportedly have huge benefits for Villa.
An announcement could be made as early as next year, with the new side possibly joining the MLS in 2024.
