Owen Won't Find A Home At Villa Park!

Paul Lambert insists Aston Villa will NOT be signing injury-prone Michael Owen.

The former Newcastle Utd striker is currently available as a free agent following his release by Manchester United.

The 32-year-old claims to have a number of options to consider and announced on Tuesday that he is 'getting closer to finding a new club'.

Paul Lambert: "No, that won't happen.

"There was no enquiry from us, I don't know where that one came from.

"That's a non-starter. He's a top player, no doubt, a really top player, but that's for another team."
