The bad news is piling up against Aston Villa at this current time.

Following Saturday’s 1-0 play-off final defeat to Fulham, Villa are facing a difficult summer, with the Birmingham Mail reporting that costs need to be cut at Villa Park.

Another report from the Birmingham Mail has also delivered a disappointing player update, with Callum O’Hare, Villa’s exciting 20-year-old, suffering knee ligament damage.

The youngster will now miss Villa’s entire pre-season schedule and potentially the start of the 2018/19 campaign.

As expected, the update on O’Hare has received plenty of reaction, with Villa’s supporters disappointed by the youngster’s injury.
