Aston Villa star Lucas Digne’s contract with next club ‘leaked’ in bizarre social media spat

ASTON VILLA star Lucas Digne became embroiled in a social media spat after denying reports he agreed a transfer.

The left-back could be allowed to leave this summer following Villa’s £37million signing of Ian Maatsen.

A leaked contract shows Galatasaray have made an offer to sign the defender[/caption]

He has attracted interest from Galatasaray who are keen to sign Digne on loan for the season.

Journalist Yağız Sabuncuoğlu reported the news on social media alongside the claim Digne had already agreed personal terms, which Digne denied.

The reporter then shared a photo of a document highlighting Galatasaray’s submission of a loan offer – but the contract showed no evidence of Digne agreeing terms.

In fact, Digne has rejected the offer of a loan move to the Turkish giants as he is keen to stay and fight for his place at Villa Park.

Galatasaray have looked to the Premier League to try and pinch talent this summer with Manchester United midfielder Scott McTominay high on their wishlist.

SunSport revealed last month that London duo Fulham and Tottenham are interested in signing the 27-year-old.

And they could overtake Galatasaray in the race to sign the Scot after the Turkish giants had a £12m bid rejected by the Red Devils.

United are reportedly demanding £25m to let McTominay leave with Fulham having a £20m offer turned down.

If Galatasaray fail to land McTominay, they could try to sign Manchester City outcast Kalvin Phillips.

The midfielder has also attracted interest from Everton as well as Roma and RB Leipzig.
