Steven Gerrard reveals Aston Villa are ready to make more signings as new arrivals Philippe Coutinho and Lucas Digne could make their debuts against Manchester United

Steven Gerrard says Aston Villa are ready to make further signings this month, following the capture of Philippe Coutinho and Lucas Digne.

Villa have made the most waves in the January transfer window so far by bringing in Gerrard’s former Liverpool team-mate on loan from Barcelona before paying £25million to sign Digne from Everton.

Ahead of Saturday's clash with Manchester United, in which both players could make their debut, Gerrard said he is keen to add a central midfielder and a centre back before the window closes.
