Aston Villa after Arsenal defender

Reports have it that Justin Hoyte of Arsenal is high on Martin OÂ’NeillÂ’s shopping list.

The twenty three year old full back hasnÂ’t quite broken into the first team ranks since his arrival at the club.

For the past couple of seasons he has been on loan at the Stadium of Light with Sunderland.

Should Martin OÂ’Neill fail in trying to lure Hoyte to Villa Park OÂ’Neill has MiddlesbroughÂ’s Luke Young next on his shopping list.

Hoyte himself would probably be keen on the move as it would more than likely present him with regular first team appearances
