    Aston Villa sack director of football Steve Round as club chiefs jet out for talks with manager Steve Bruce. The EFL has also written to Villa to ask for proof of funding ahead of the new season.

    #avfc in advanced negotiations with a Middle East consortium, believed to be from Egypt. Understand Dr Tony Xia is close to agreeing a full sale.

    Surely it can’t be done that quickly, especially with Egyptians?

    It’s the done thing in football. It’s the FIFA approved method of payment.

    Maybe it is our Egyptian owners and the twitter announcement that is pending is their departure?? Or maybe they'll merge us and have Aston Villa Tigers 2 018

    Where there's a will there's a way, Xia wants to sell and the Allams haven't been as desperate to sell...yet.

    It just goes to show if there is a will to do something it can be done quickly, unlike our owners who lie through their teeth.

    When Tony Xia found out that the money in the suitcase was all fake, he felt sorry for them and gave them a £20 note that John Terry had left in the dressing room, before sending them on their way.
