MacDonald expects bids for Villa stars
Kevin MacDonald says Aston Villa have not received any enquiries for Ashley Young or any other player - but he expects that to change.[LNB] MacDonald expects some of the club's best players to be the target of Premier League predators following their failure to qualify for the Europa League.[LNB]Tottenham are reported to be lining up a big-money offer for Ashley Young after securing their place in the Champions League group stages but MacDonald believes the Villa hierarchy may be unwilling to sell.[LNB]He said: "I am sure clubs will be interested in players because there are some good players at Aston Villa.[LNB]"You'd expect not being in Europe to be a factor but you'd expect it from the clubs that are playing in Europe in that they might want an extra big player.[LNB]"We've had not anything (enquiries) as such. People would have told me if there were any enquiries. We've had nothing so far.[LNB]"But in terms of convincing players to stay, it might not be their choice.[LNB]"If the club needs them, and they are under contract, the club will probably want to keep them."
