PSR or mismanagement? Villa face harsh financial reality

Aston Villa is working to comply with profit and sustainability rules to avoid facing points deduction. Despite finishing seventh in the 2022-23 season and narrowly missing out on Champions League qualification, they have had to sell high-profile players like Douglas Luiz and Leon Bailey to remain compliant. The club's finances have been strained, leading to limited investments in the squad, despite former player Micah Richards highlighting the need for new signings to refresh the team.
