Emile Smith Rowe reacts to Aston Villa interest, as Arsenal reject second bid

Emile Smith Rowe is reportedly ‘blown away’ by Aston Villa’s interest in him this summer. The Villa have had two bids rejected by Arsenal for the England U21 international, however they’re not giving up and are preparing to submit a third offer for the midfielder. According to the Birmingham Mail, Smith Rowe is ‘blown away’ by the level of Villa’s interest and is flattered that the club have made such an effort to sign him. It's still unclear if Arsenal are willing to sell but the Gunners are certainly keen to tie the midfielder down to a new deal before they make any final decision. Smith Rowe has two years to expire his deal at the Emirates, where he earns around £20,000-a-week. Source - Metro Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
