Villa could be set to sell goalkeeping pair Nyland and Kalinic – Is this the right move?

Aston Villa are reportedly set to sell both Lovre Kalinic and Orjan Nyland in January, according to reports.

According to the Mail, Villa are interested in selling both goalkeepers in January, with Dean Smith looking to cut the number of goalkeepers at the club.

Villa have four goalkeepers at the moment, with Tom Heaton the starter, whilst Jed Steer is the main backup goalkeeper.

Kalinic was linked with a move away from the club over the summer, but no deal would surface come to before the end of the window.

Nyland, however, has revealed he believes he still has a future at the club, after missing the entirety of the second half of last season due to injury.

Villa could really do with cutting the number of goalkeepers at the club, but they do have to be wary about still having options in case of injuries.

If Heaton and Steer would to pick up injuries, and Villa were to sell both their other backups, then there could be a huge issue.

However, if Villa are to sign Jordan Archer, who is training with the club at the minute, then that could solve this issue.
