Aston Villa’s Europa League Squad
Aston Villa have confirmed the club’s squad list for the UEFA Europa League, which will contain 21 players in List A. The club were allowed an additional four ‘club-trained players’ in the list – who were registered with the club for at least three full seasons (or 36 months), between the ages of 15 and 21. Lamare Bogarde, who would have fitted the criteria, has instead included on List B, as he was born after January 1, 2004 (only by four days though, with his birthday on January 5).
Europa League Squad Fall Guy
After not being added to Villa’s Champions League squad last season for the knockout rounds, both Donyell Malen and Andrés García are included this time for the Europa League squad. One Villa player does miss out though, with Emery deciding to leave out Ross Barkley.
Last season, Barkley did manage six substitute appearances in the Champions League, and scored one goal, so he’ll be disappointed to miss out. However, his recent injury certainly did him no favours, when it came to the Villa manager’s decision.

Europa League List B
Villa will be able to include more players in List B, although, apart from Bogarde, they are very unlikely to feature in the tournament.
UEFA’s List B guidelines:
A player may be registered on List B if he is born on or after 1 January 2004 and has, since his 15th birthday, been eligible to play for the club concerned for any uninterrupted period of two years, or a total of three consecutive years with a maximum of one loan period to a club from the same association for a period not longer than one year. Players aged 16 may be registered on List B if they have been registered with the participating club for the previous two years without interruption.
