Aston Villa's Keith Wyness: 'We'll meet financial fair play'

Aston Villa chief executive Keith Wyness has eased any financial fears with the club ready for a summer clear-out.

The Championship club failed in their attempt to make an instant return to the Premier League this season.

Steve Bruce's side finished 13th after relegation from the top flight last year, having spent around £55 million last summer after owner Tony Xia bought the club.

Villa need to adhere to Financial Fair Play regulations, the spending guidelines which govern the Championship, but despite admitting they have cut it fine, Wyness remains unconcerned.

"It's marginal for this year, very marginal,'' he said.
