# Sky Sports reporter rules out Curtis Jones joining Aston Villa on loan

**Sky Sports reporter Michael Bridge has told [The Transfer Tavern](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/) that he doesn’t expect Curtis Jones to join Aston Villa on deadline day.**

Villa, who have picked up four points from their opening three Premier League games, have been one of the big spenders in the window – bringing in Emiliano Buendia, Leon Bailey, and Danny Ings for more than [£95m](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/aston-villa/transfers/verein/405).

However, Dean Smith’s side also tested the waters with both Southampton and Arsenal for the services of James Ward-Prowse and Emile Smith-Rowe, although those two have remained at their respective clubs.

But after missing out on those two, according to [The Sun](https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/15994647/liverpool-curtis-jones-aston-villa-transfer/), the Midlands outfit were willing to offer Liverpool £15m for Jones, who came through the Reds’ academy.

Jones made [34](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/curtis-jones/leistungsdaten/spieler/433188/plus/0?saison=2020) appearances for Jurgen Klopp’s men last season, and even played regularly in the Champions League, but hasn’t yet been [involved](https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/curtis-jones/leistungsdaten/spieler/433188/plus/0?saison=2021) in any of Liverpool’s three matches this term.

Bridge, however, told [The Transfer Tavern](https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/) that Smith is happy with his squad:

*“I don’t think that one’s a goer. I think Villa will probably keep it as it is.”*
