Villa Linked With Mings and Bishop - Ipswich Town News

Town’s Tyrone Mings and Teddy Bishop are reportedly amongst a number of young English players on Aston Villa manager Tim Sherwood’s summer wish-list.

According to the Sun on Sunday, Sherwood will target the best homegrown youngsters in the close season with Mings, Bishop and Leeds pair Sam Byram and Lewis Cook amongst those he is keen on adding to his squad.

Mings, 22, who is contracted to Town until 2017, has been eyed by practically every Premier League club this season, while Bishop has similarly attracted interest since breaking into the first team early in the campaign.

The 18-year-old midfielder recently signed new terms until 2018 with an option for a further season.
