Aston Villa chief Tom Fox has revealed a shake-up of their scouting staff.

Fox says several changes have been made this season.

He told the Birmingham Mail: "What we've done on the football side is make Sean Kimberley head of the academy. He's also hired a head of recruitment for the academy.

"Paddy Reilly is our director of recruiting overall at Bodymoor Heath and Paddy has hired a whole new scouting network on a full-time basis to cover the whole world.

"I hope that will help us identify talent internationally."
