Aston Villa No Closer To Breakthrough In Carney Chukwuemeka Contract Talks

0

Steven Gerrard admits Villa are no closer to a breakthrough in contract talks with teenage star Carney Chukwuemeka, Megasportsarena.com reports.

The 18-year-old is considered one of the top young talents in the country but discussions over a long-term deal have stalled.

Gerrard has made no secret of his desire for Chukwuemeka, who has made eight Premier League appearances since he became boss, to be part of his plans moving forward.

But asked for an update on contract talks, he replied: “As far as I know they have not progressed. We have done everything we can from our side to try and make them progress. I am not sure where that is up to at the moment.”

Chukwuemeka has 15 months remaining on his current deal and Villa could be left with a difficult decision to make this summer should the impasse remain and any serious suitors emerge. Arsenal are among the clubs thought to be keeping tabs on the England under-19 international.

Villa are set for a busy summer themselves as Gerrard reshapes his squad ready for a serious tilt at the top half next summer.
