Aston Villa are interested in signing Ethan Ampadu on a season-long loan from Chelsea if the 18-year-old becomes available this summer. Terry, the former Chelsea captain, knows Ampadu after training with him last summer, when he returned to Cobham before announcing his retirement later in the year. Those attributes, allied with his versatility, means that he will have plenty of suitors if Chelsea allow him to go out on loan. Indeed, Ampadu ended up playing more matches and minutes for Wales last season than Chelsea. It is also worth noting that Lampard tried and failed to sign Ampadu on loan at Derby in January.
