Premier League Club Aston Villa for Sale

Aston Villa owner Randy Lerner has announced that the Premier League club is being put up for sale.

The American assumed control of Villa in 2006 after a £62.6m takeover was agreed with the club’s board.

“I owe it to Villa to move on, and look for fresh, invigorated leadership, if in my heart I feel I can no longer do the job,” he said on Monday.
