Manager Unai Emery said Ollie Watkins apologised for refusing to play for Aston Villa on Sunday as he paid an emotional tribute to the departing striker. The 30-year-old is expected in Saudi Arabia on Friday to complete a £51m move to Al-Hilal, with Villa poised to finalise the signing of Chelsea's Nicolas Jackson for £65m as his replacement. Emery praised the England forward's behaviour during his Villa career and said he and the squad had accepted Watkins' apology for making himself unavailable against Brighton.

Jackson was on course to join Atletico Madrid after being told his services were no longer required at Stamford Bridge. But in light of Ollie Watkins’ desire to move to Saudi Pro League side Al Hilal, Villa were in need of a new striker and set their sights on the Senegal international. It was reported on Thursday that the Villans had agreed on a £65million fee and though the club have not yet announced the transfer at the time of writing, Emery has confirmed it.

He always had good behaviour in the club and with me. ‘He’s a fantastic guy. I told him “bye”, with a huge hug and a small cry. Unai Emery confirmed the transfer before the official announcement (Photo: Getty) ‘Now it’s a new chapter with Nicolas Jackson. Of course all the best for him in Saudi. We are replacing him.’ In order to be eligible to face the Gunners on Sunday, Villa had to register Jackson in their squad by midday on Friday. They faced a race against time to do so and the Telegraph report that while the transfer is yet to be announced, the paperwork was submitted before the deadline and Jackson WILL be available to play at Villa Park. Ezri Konsa could make his Arsenal debut against his old club Villa (Photo: Getty) Jackson previously played under Emery at Villarreal and had scored 30 goals in two seasons for Cheslea before he was exiled and loaned to Bayern Munich last season. Arsenal will be heavy favourites for Sunday’s match, after Villa lost 4-0 to Brighton in their opening game, with almost all their key players sold this summer, including Ezri Konsa who has joined the Gunners. After Jackson, the Villans are now closing on on a move for AC Milan winger Rafa Leao. For more stories like this, check our sport page.
