Aston Villa manager Alex McLeish reveals that he has decided on the players that he wants to sign in the summer.

Alex McLeish has revealed that he is already identified the players that he wants to add to his Aston Villa squad in the summer.

However, the Scottish manager has admitted that his budget will only allow him to sign a couple of players.

"We've already made plans to bring some players in," said McLeish. "We've looked at a lot of players that we have a good chance of bringing to the club, Bosman signings but of a good quality.

"There are targets as well that cost money. I am sure the chairman would do massive wages again as long as it was kept inside the framework and parameters.

"I can assure the fans we will be in the market for players who cost money - but we only be targeting a couple of those types of players."

McLeish took charge of Villa in the summer following a stint with rivals Birmingham City.
