£18m wouldn’t buy you Super John McGinn’s huge value to Aston Villa in the dressing-room, setting standards, helping new players settle in and other roles as a highly respected club captain. £18m wouldn’t buy you anyone close as a replacement for McGinn on the pitch either. He played 49 times for Villa last season, started home and away against PS-G, even scoring. McGinn’s a leader in a sport not awash with them. He’s a battler and a good midfielder.

£18m doesn’t buy you a player with a year left on his contract, let alone two like McGinn. £18m is a low-ball offer, even if simply testing the water. Yes, he’s 30, but in a 16-man game nowadays, in a season that could stretch beyond 50 games, McGinn still has a major part to play, even if increasingly as an impact sub. Every team, every club needs a McGinn, an honest, hard-working pro.

Also, at a club like Villa with famous, historic Scottish roots (going back to Perthshire-born driving force William McGregor) it's a source of pride to have a Scotland international like McGinn representing them.

Any club interested in McGinn has to offer far more than £18m. A club as clued-up as Villa, and as well-run on the recruitment side, know McGinn’s value to them on and off the pitch. A contract extension surely awaits? #AVFC

Exclusive: Boubacar Kamara has signed a new contract at #AVFC.

Significant coup for Villa to finalise extension after months of negotiations - official announcement expected soon. Story @TheAthleticFC

@theavfcfaithful If this is true, it might not be a bad shout. Clearly the club want 40 million but no one wants pay that sum. If he’s given the number 9 and bangs in a few goals, might just drive up the interest/value for the next window

@AVFCOfficial @mattycash622 @JacobRamsey41 @dgoficial I think we underestimate Ramsey’s vision here. Brilliant!
