Brazilian midfielder Felipe Gutiérrez, who has been on loan to Aston Villa from Barcelona since January, has been performing well, and the team leader Cherat has recently expressed his hope that Gutiérrez will stay after this season to help Villa rebuild its former glory, but his high weekly salary and expensive buyout fee will be an obstacle for Villa to sign him.
Gutiérrez has been on loan to Aston Villa since January, and his three goals and three assists in seven matches have helped Villa achieve a good result. If they get three more points against Leeds United on Friday (11th), Villa will be in the top spot for the first time since 2011.

The former teammate could stay beyond this season: he had a successful career at Barcelona, but then hit a rough patch, he just needed a change of scenery, and Villa wants to be the new scenery for him, and we need a player like Gutiérrez to help us rebuild.
However, Gutiérrez's 250,000 weekly wage and £33 million buyout fee will be a major obstacle for Villa to keep him, and Sherratt is not insisting that the team will make a move for him. Currently, Gutiérrez has a one-year contract with Barcelona, so it is expected that Villa will take a one-year loan from Barcelona and sign him as a free agent as a compromise, but only if Barcelona is willing to waive the loan fee.
