Marc Skinner’s team news for Aston Villa plus Millie Turner deal reaction

Meanwhile, Turner’s new deal has come with a challenge from her manager, despite his delight at the news.

“She’s one of the originals, right?” Skinner said about the experienced defender. “She has a steep history in Manchester United, one of the kids who came through the Academy.

“I’m so excited again but I’m also a realist, in terms of I’ve challenged Millie. I want Millie to be better. As incredible as she is, she can be a real leading light for our team in many moments.

“I want her to be even better. Her next challenge is to win things with Manchester United and try to get a place in an England team. She’s got work to do in order to do that, on a consistency basis, but I’m so grateful to she’s part of her team and a big part. I put her in the leadership group this season to show her growth and how important she is.”
