Aston Villa manager Dean Smith has delivered a positive injury update on Tom Heaton.
Smith claims that Heaton could join the group in training next week and he is already back working with the club’s goalkeeping coach Neil Cutler.
“Tom is back throwing himself around with our goalkeeping coach Neil Cutler and I’m expecting him to be back with the group next week,” he said to the Telegraph. “Obviously when he’s back, he will give me a great problem. But being in the industry for over 30 years as a player and manager you have these conversations.
