thunderball Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 45 minutes ago, useless said: It's behind a 'paywall' but when the page first loads for a brief few seconds it's shows the whole article, if you're quick you can copy it and then paste it somewhere to read. 'Aston Villa are poised to take their summer spending to £75 million with the captures of Emiliano Martinez and Bertrand Traore....' Telegraph The relevant part: “Dean Smith, the Villa head coach, is still keen on signing another striker and winger, but will now move to trim his squad before the transfer window closes next month. After the arrival of Martinez, Villa will seek to offload two goalkeepers with Orjan Nyland and Lovre Kalinic facing the exit door. Nyland played in last season’s Carabao Cup final against Manchester City and will be made available, while £6 million signing Kalinic will also be moved on. Tom Heaton, the England international, is expected back from a knee injury after the international break in October, while Jed Steer is viewed as a capable deputy. Smith could allow £8 million forward Mbwana Samatta to leave if he succeeds in signing another striker. Villa will also listen to offers for Frederic Guilbert, Jota and Henri Lansbury as Smith moves to reduce the size of his squad for the season.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, as a fan who hasn't seen a lot of Matty Cash play, I'd rather keep Freddy just in case things don't work out with Cash. Though, I'm sure those at the club are better equipped to judge the situation. Me too, but if cashing in those players means getting another decent forward rather than a stocking filler, then it moves us forward Edited September 14, 2020 by thunderball 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vive_La_Villa Posted September 14, 2020 Share Posted September 14, 2020 Benrahma is going to Palace. I was really keen on us signing him but I just have this feeling he hasn’t got the right attitude. A London club will suit him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
