Tim Sherwood offers Aston Villa transfer update on £10m trio

Tim Sherwood expects exits before the summer window shuts

TIM SHERWOOD admits he wants to offload some members of his Aston Villa squad before the transfer window closes.

 

Villa currently have 29 players in their 25-man senior squad, but that number includes several under-21 players who do not count towards their total.

The Birmingham Mail claim Villa trio Philippe Senderos, Charles N'Zogbia and Kieran Richardson - who cost the club an accumulated £10m - are all up for sale.

 

"There are still some players here who know they can find other clubs," Sherwood said. "But I think the balance of the squad is getting a lot better."

Villa have spent in excess of £44million on nine new recruits this summer after making £40.5m on the sales of Fabian Delph and Christian Benteke.
