Report: Steven Gerrard thinks 27-year-old Villa player could get so much better now Kamara’s in the team
ο·½Steven Gerrard thinks new Aston Villa midfielder Boubacar Kamara will let John McGinn flourish even more next season.
πAccording to the , Gerrard wanted to bolster the spine of his team and wanted an anchorman to protect his defence as a priority.
πThat has been rapidly secured and it should allow the likes of McGinn to push forward and score more goals, with less worries about defensive responsibility.
You get the feeling Villa will be busy once again when the transfer window opens, and it would be a surprise if they did not sign another central defender, with James Tarkowski recently linked.
Their report reads: βImproving the spine of the team is Steven Gerrardβs intention.
βHaving already signed the highly-rated defensive midfielder Boubacar Kamara from Marseille on a five-year deal, they are also pursuing a new centre-back and a forward.
βGetting Kamara so early this summer is a major coup.
βThat position has been Villaβs priority since returning to the Premier League and Gerrard believes he will bring a new dimension to his team, and enable others β such as John McGinn β to flourish.β
McGinn himself π³has been the subject of transfer interest from Tottenham and Liverpoolπ¦, both of whom can offer Champions League football.
β±But Villa are in a strong financial position, and should not be under any pressure to sell for anything other than a huge offer.
βAnd the report makes it clear that they are planning for next season with the Scot in their ranks, and he still has a chance of being at the World Cup later this year.
