Aston Villa are monitoring 20-year-old French centre-back Jeremy Jacquet to inject youth into their backline. Despite Rennes' stance that Jacquet is not for sale, pressure may mount as offers take shape. Villa is among several Premier League clubs, including Arsenal, Newcastle United, Brighton, and Brentford, closely watching the situation. Rennes have tied Jacquet to a long-term contract until June 2029, reinforcing their desire to retain him, but the growing interest from top clubs could challenge their resolve. According to Transfermarkt, Jacquet's current market value is €10.00m.
