Aston Villa star returns to training

Injuries have plagued Unai Emery’s side throughout 2024. First-team players spending time on the sidelines just doesn’t seem to cease with multiple out for the season. 

This situation could not have come at a worse time for the club as they aim to secure the Conference League trophy and the Champions League. 

However, good news looks like it is just around the corner as Jacob Ramsey has been spotted training ahead of the Wolves fixture.

The race for fourth spot looks like it will go to the wire. Spurs and Villa have been battling for the spot for months with each side exchanging blows. 

Emery’s side managed to get the better of Spurs in the capital while the hosts were hammered by them 4-0 at Villa Park a few weeks back.

Now, Neville has made his own prediction on who will secure the final spot. However, he believes both teams have the power to ‘blow it up’.

This summer is undoubtedly a big one at Villa Park. If the club are to build on their success from this season, they must be wise in the transfer market. 

Since Emery’s arrival, the club have managed to do this, with names such as Pau Torres and Moussa Diaby already having a big impact this season.

Now, Villa are looking to continue their trend as they eye Argentine attack Paulo Dybala who is available for extremely cheap due to a release clause. The club have already reportedly contacted his agent for information about a potential transfer but faces stiff competition.
