Nigeria-England right midfielder Femi Azeez of Championship side Millwall is being linked with a summer switch to Premier League club Aston Villa.
The 25-year-old London-born winger, who plays primarily on the right of midfield and prefers his left foot, has a current estimated market value of €15.00m according to Transfermarkt, a figure that is expected to frame any negotiations between the clubs. The rumoured move, logged on 29 June 2026 with the probability of completion still listed as “?”, remains at the speculation stage.
Azeez, who wears the number 11 shirt for Millwall, has no publicly listed contract expiry date, leaving open the prospect that he could move later in his career as a free agent if no agreement over a new deal is reached at The Den. For now, however, he remains under Millwall’s banner in the Championship.
Standing at 1.81m, Azeez has developed into a versatile wide midfielder capable of operating across the attacking line, but his main position is on the right. Born on 5 June 2001, he qualifies for both Nigeria and England and is listed with dual nationalities on Transfermarkt, underlining the growing interest he could attract at international level if his progression continues.
Recent club data highlights his influence in Millwall’s wide areas, with his performances in the 2025-26 campaign helping maintain the south London side’s status in England’s second tier. In his latest noted outing for Millwall – a Championship fixture earlier this month against an unnamed opponent – he featured from the right flank in a match that underlined his work rate and direct running, though detailed statistical breakdowns from that game are not provided in the available data.
With Aston Villa monitoring wide options as they look to deepen their squad, Azeez’s age profile, versatility and €15.00m valuation make him an intriguing option rather than a confirmed target at this stage. Should a move to Villa Park materialise, it would offer the dual-national winger a first sustained crack at Premier League football and could mark a decisive step in shaping both his reputation and long-term career trajectory.
