Aston Villa are set to be in the playoffs for the second season in a row, with the Championship season drawing to a close.
The Villans have completed a remarkable turnaround, and have gone on a long winning run to jump all the way up to fifth place in the Championship table.
However, Dean Smith is surely already thinking ahead to next season, with Villa potentially returning to the top flight next season.
They will hope to do one better than last season, where they narrowly lost out to Fulham at the playoff final at Wembley.
One of the key areas that Villa will have to strengthen will be the defence, especially with some key players leaving.
Villa will also have to strengthen, especially after conceding way too many goals during the early parts of the season.
But here, we will look at several targets Villa could be looking at to strengthen this Summer.
