New NSWE document revealed to show major Aston Villa ‘internal transfer’
Aston Villa’s Women’s team has become increasingly important to the Villans’ financial situation over the years.
NSWE have had to battle Profit and Sustainability Rules since arriving in B6, which has posed a major threat to Unai Emery, who could lose some of his best players.
Morgan Rogers has been tipped for a gigantic sale in the past, as his transfer market value has multiplied since joining from Middlesbrough in 2024.
The England international’s potential sale is one way the Villans could ease PSR concerns, but Aston Villa‘s Women’s team is another outlet that NSWE can utilise.
Aston Villa sells women’s team internally in new update
NSWE almost sold a 20 per cent stake in the women’s team earlier this year, but currently still owns 90 per cent of the side.
Nassef Sawiris and Wes Edens have had to come up with different ways to keep Aston Villa in a healthy position, and so far, they’re doing a good job.
- Aston Villa have come close to breaching the Premier League’s £105million PSR loss limit
- Clubs that exceed these limits can be handed heavy fines, including points penalties
Now, NSWE have taken further action in balancing the books at Villa Park, according to the latest updates on Companies House.
Journalist Kieran Maguire shared an update on his X of an “internal transfer” which has now been confirmed at Villa, concerning the women’s team.
Maguire wrote: “Looks as if there’s been an internal transfer of Aston Villa’s women’s team confirmed at Companies House as control passed to NSWE, the holding company from the men’s team.”
With PSR issues still prevalent, there are many reasons as to why this move will benefit the Villans.
Why the transfer can ease Aston Villa’s PSR issues
The sale will now be recorded as a sold asset from the men’s team, which will only provide financial relief for Emery’s side.
NSWE will still own the women’s team, but it will be run by a different legal entity, separate from the men’s side.
Aston Villa Women still costs the club wage bills, transfer fees, matchday expenses, and more, which will have only been stacking up against Emery the wrong way.
But the women’s team will now see different accounting treatment, meaning it files its own profits and losses, and carries its own assets and liabilities.
Any losses have instantly been reduced from this sale, and as a result, Aston Villa as a whole are in a much better position for it – props to NSWE.
