Kevin Phillips tips Aston Villa to sign John Ruddy

Kevin Phillips has tipped Aston Villa to make a move for Wolves player John Ruddy.

The Wolves ace is expected to leave this summer and Phillips thinks he could be an option for Dean Smith’s side.

He said to Football Insider: “It will definitely be an area of concern for Dean whatever league they are in next year. John Ruddy could be an option for them at the end of the season.”

They will need a quality alternative to Heaton next season and Ruddy would be an ideal signing for them.

Pepe Reina is set to return to Italy once the loan deal expires.
