Aston Villa January transfers and net spend: Every confirmed signing and sale for Unai Emery's side in 2026 winter window

Aston Villa barely spent in the summer transfer window heading into the 2025-26 season due to Profit and Sustainability Rules (PSR) constraints, with the Villans' major signing being Evann Guessand from Nice.

The forward has yet to find any real consistency since swapping Nice for the West Midlands, and the club's financial challenges are not abating, pointing to another modest window unless significant sales are made.

Notwithstanding, Villa have recovered from an awfully slow start to catapult themselves into unexpected title contention, which was unanticipated after their dismal start; however, they may need improved depth to sustain any challenge for the title.

Here, Sports Mole rounds up all of Aston Villa's confirmed ins and outs during the 2026 January transfer window, as well as looking at their net spend and latest transfer rumours.
