Aston Villa team coach ‘bricked’ after Burnley victory as police sent footage
Aston Villa’s team bus reportedly suffered ‘significant damage’.
Aston Villa’s team coach was significantly damaged with bricks after Sunday’s win over Burnley at Turf Moor, according to reports. A brace from Matty Cash helped Villa into an early lead before the hosts managed to hit back through Lyle Foster, although Moussa Diaby struck late on to wrap up all three points.
The result marked a third straight win in all competitions for Villa, who have taken six points from their opening trio of Premier League matches. Things reportedly turned sour as their players and staff left Turf Moor, though, with The Athletic claiming that Villa’s team coach was ‘bricked’.
It is said that ‘significant damage’ was done to the front window of the coach, while video footage from the incident is thought to have been passed on to the police. Express Sport have reached out to Lancashire Police for comment.
It came after Villa had condemned Burnley to their second defeat in as many Premier League outings since they were promoted from the Championship last season. The Clarets fought valiantly against superior opposition but ultimately came up short, with Villa’s quality shining through over the course of the match

- The club has been linked with a La Liga star as a potential signing.
- They could be a significant addition to Villa’s squad, with similar stats to Ferran Torres.
Aston Villa are eyeing further attacking reinforcements this summer following the devastating injury to Emiliano Buendia.
The Argentine was injured in a training session days before the club’s opening Premier League fixture, leaving him sidelined for the foreseeable future.
Unai Emery will be without one of his favoured attackers for a huge chunk of the campaign, with the latest reports pointing to a potential signing that could relieve the blow of Buendia’s absence.
Who could Aston Villa sign this summer?
Italian gem Nicolo Zaniolo was recruited on loan from Galatasaray last week in a move that signified a reach for a player with a similar approach to play to Buendia.

For a long stretch of the summer, reports in Spain pointed Villa out as one of the clubs that could sign Barcelona winger Ferran Torres as the Catalan giants continue to scramble for funds amid financial pressures.
After starting the season impressively for Barca, nothing has prevailed regarding the links to the Midlands, though another forward from the Spanish champions has emerged as a potential target.
As reported in Spain and relayed by Sport Witness, Ansu Fati is a wanted man in the Premier League, with both Tottenham and Villa eyeing the 20-year-old, who is valued at €50m (£43m).
What could Ansu Fati offer to Aston Villa?
Identified as a player “destined for greatness” by talent scout Jacek Kulig, Fati was naturally placed in line as Barcelona’s heir to Lionel Messi, with him adorning the number 10 shirt following the superstar’s farewell.
Making his debut at just 16, the Spaniard shone in his debut campaign, scoring seven goals in 24 appearances in his first taste of La Liga at his boyhood club.
A product of the infamous La Masia setup, the 20-year-old has all the talent to prevail as one of the most impressive in the world, although injury woes and competition in the squad at Camp Nou have pointed to a potential exit.
For Villa, capturing a talent as audacious as Fati could mark the progression and ambition of the club under Emery, with the winger having the potential to be one of the best players to have played at Villa Park.
