“The commitment of Ollie Watkins with us is a huge commitment. He appreciates a lot how Villa was always supporting him and helping him, when we joined here two years ago how we were working with him and getting the best of him.
“Now we need him, like he needed Aston Villa in the last years. I am speaking with him a lot, he is always adapting with every circumstance we have and of course when some teams calling us being interested in the players it’s very good for us and the players.
“Some players prefer to leave and some accept to stay here and commit with our challenges. One of them is Ollie Watkins.”
