Philogene came through the ranks at Aston Villa but impressed in the Championship last season after switching to Hull City; Ipswich and Everton agreed deals to sign the winger this summer but Villa activated a clause which allowed them to match those bids for the 22-year-old.
Jaden Philogene has completed his return to Aston Villa on a permanent deal.
The winger, who joined Hull City from Villa in 2023, had been wanted by Ipswich and Everton this summer, with both clubs agreeing deals with the Championship side.
However, Villa triggered a clause that allowed them to match those bids and the 22-year-old is heading back to the club where he came through the youth ranks and made three Premier League appearances.
Philogene scored 12 goals and came up with six assists from 32 appearances for Hull last season. There is an appearance-related clause in his transfer back to Villa which incentivises game time – a priority for Philogene at this stage of his career.
Hull also have a sell-on clause in the deal.
When does the summer transfer window close?
The 2024 summer transfer window in the Premier League officially closes on August 30 at 11pm UK time.
The Premier League has brought forward Deadline Day to link up with the other major leagues in Europe. The closing dates were set following discussions with the leagues in England, Germany, Italy, Spain and France.
