Villa boss Lambert must find Bent buyer to fund January plans

Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert needs to find a buyer for Darren Bent to fund his January market plans.

His best hope is to sell striker Bent for £15m and reinvest the money. Bent is currently injured, making a sale difficult, and only Fulham, QPR and Liverpool are showing any interest.
