Tim Sherwood is braced to lose some of his key players this summer with bids set to come flying in from a whole host of clubs for Christian Benteke, Tom Cleverley has agreed to join Everton, and Ron Vlaar could be heading out the exit door in a few weeks.

After not signing a new contract with Villa, Ron Vlaar could leave on a free transfer unless Tim Sherwood can agree a new deal with the defender.

Manchester United and Spurs are believed to be the front runners in the race for the centre-back, and negotiations can begin with player and agent right now.

Spurs have already signed centre-half Kevin Wimmer for £4.2m, and if these rumours have any truth to them, then it would seem that Mauricio Pochettino is keen to strengthen the defensive unit further.
