On 18 July 2015, he signed for Premier League side Aston Villa on a five-year contract for an undisclosed fee, reported to be in the region of £9 million.[4][5][6] He made his debut on 8 August, playing the full 90 minutes of a 1–0 win over Bournemouth at Dean Court.[7] On 15 November, Amavi suffered an ACL tear in his right knee while on duty with the France U21 team, ending his first season at Aston Villa.[8]
Without Amavi, Villa were relegated to the EFL Championship, the second tier of English football, which lead to speculation on the future of Amavi as well as other Villa players.[9] However, Amavi decided to continue playing for Villa for the 2016–17 season, as he had high hopes on Villa being promoted immediately back up to the Premier League.[9] On 27 December 2016, Aston Villa turned down an £25 million bid from an undisclosed club from China for Amavi; reports in France also claimed that Marseille had also bid for the player.[10] That season, he made 34 appearances in the Championship for Villa, but they finished in a bottom-half thirteenth-place league finish.[11]
Marseille
On 10 August 2017, it was agreed that Amavi would join Ligue 1 side Olympique de Marseille on loan for the entirety of the 2017–18 season, with Marseille also considering interest in signing the player in a permanent transfer in the following season.[12]
Marseille decided to make Amavi's move permanent in October 2017, meeting an agreed clause in the loan contract.[13]
On 31 August 2023, Amavi was loaned to fellow Ligue 1 side Brest for the 2023–24 season.[19] On 19 May 2024, he scored his first goal from a free-kick in a 3–0 away win over Toulouse on the final matchday of the season, helping his club to secure a third-place finish in the league and first ever qualification to the UEFA Champions League.[20] On 31 July 2024, he was transferred to Brest on a permanent deal, signing a one-year contract with an option for an extra year.[21]
