Lucas Digne expects Aston Villa to have busy summer in the transfer market as the club’s billionaire owners try to crack the Premier League elite.
Villa are set for a mid-table finish under Steven Gerrard but there is likely to be significant turnover within the squad before the start of next season, with the former England captain keen to strengthen in every area.
Gerrard is pushing for on-loan Philippe Coutinho to join permanently from Barcelona and Digne – who arrived from Everton for £27million in January – believes this signals Villa’s ambition.
