Diawara rejects €17m Aston Villa

Amadou Diawara has reportedly turned down a €17m offer from Aston Villa, as the Bologna rebel has his heart set on Roma.

The 19-year-old midfielder has gone AWOL from pre-season training in protest at the lack of a transfer.

According to Calciomercato.it, he let the club know via his agent that he has no intention of playing for anyone other than Roma.

This means rejecting a proposal worth €17m from English outfit Aston Villa.
