On why he chose Aston Villa as his next club, he said: “I was looking for a club where I could regain my confidence and rediscover the form I had during my early years at Manchester United and I got a call from Aston Villa manager Unai Emery. I had a conversation with him, and he made me feel valued. He explained his vision for the team and how I could fit into his system. That gave me the belief I needed to make this move to Aston Villa. He has given me the confidence to be here and help the team achieve something special. The style of play suits me, and I think I can bring energy, creativity, and goals to the attack. I want to repay the faith shown in me by working hard every day and giving my best on the pitch. This is a fresh start, and I’m determined to make it count.”
On his playing style and what he brings to Aston Villa as a player, he said: “I’m a winger who plays on the left side. I’m right footed, so I like to cut inside and create chances. I enjoy taking on defenders, running at them with pace, and putting crosses into the box. I also like to drive inside and shoot when the opportunity comes. That’s my game. I need to be confident to do those things well. When I’m confident, I feel sharp, and everything flows naturally. Once I get that rhythm back, I know I can perform at my best and help the team to do well.”
