Much has been made of Aston Villa’s struggles this season and a lot of it can be pinned down to the issue at centre-back.
Villa have played far too many games this season with a makeshift defence, due to injuries and poor recruitment.
The club need to make amends in the summer and strengthen the options available to Dean Smith at the back.
Here are five centre-backs Villa could go and target in the next transfer window…
