Darren Bent £18m to Villa

[avoidconfusion]

"Aston Villa is a massive club and as soon as I knew they were interested in signing me I wanted to join," Bent told the club's official website.

"The size of the football club and the history of the club are major reasons for me coming here.

"There are some top, top players here too, real quality, and I've been able to speak to the manager and the chairman about their ambitions for the club, so I'm very excited about being a part of what we hope to achieve."

And if Villa go down Darren?

Bet he has a clause in his contract that he can jump ship if they go down.

£24m is alot to splash out but if Villa have the money why not, he will score goals no doubt.
