Transfer window closes: Hutton and Jenas join Aston Villa

Written by Dan on August 31, 2011

The summer transfer window has finally come to a close, Alan Hutton and Jermaine Jenas both joined from Tottenham to complete our squad for the coming season.

Hutton joins on a four year contract and will be Luke Young’s natural replacement, especially with news of Eric Lichaj’s hip injury keeping him out for the next four months.

Jenas has come on a season long loan, presumably with an option to buy at the end of the season if he works out. He has two years remaining on his current Tottenham contract.

So, that leaves our first team squad looking as follows:

Goalkeepers (3)
Given, Guzan, Marshall.

Defenders (10)
Baker, Beye, Clark, Collins, Cuellar, Dunne, Hutton, Lichaj, Lowry, Warnock.

Midfielders (8)
Albrighton, Bannan, Delph, Herd, Ireland, Jenas, N’Zogbia, Petrov.

Forwards (4)
Agbonlahor, Bent, Delfouneso, Heskey.

Andreas Weimann is on loan at Watford until January and Enda Steven will be coming in during the same month. There are also some youngsters in the reserves such as Daniel Johnson and Gary Gardner available to cover for injuries and suspensions.
