Sources close to the club have distanced themselves from reports Villa had spoken to Chelsea about a possible move for the winger.

Sterling has been told he is surplus to requirements at Stamford Bridge but his £325,000-a-week salary makes the move a virtual non-starter for Villa.

Emery, who has made seven signings to this point, has not ruled out further additions before next Friday’s deadline.

But he added: “I am very happy with what we have now. Of course, something can change, players leaving or others joining.
