Martin: He has had his time at Villa. I found him to be frustrating at times when he had to try and beat a player two or three times before attempting to pass or cross a ball. Good player but I don't think he will be missed.

Aston Villa have confirmed winger Leon Bailey has joined Roma on a season-long loan deal with an option to buy. The 28-year-old will join up with the Serie A side who finished fifth in the league last season. Bailey has made 144 appearance for Villa since he signed for the club from Bayer Leverkusen in 2021.

The deal will include an option for the Italian side to sign the winger permanently for around €22m (£19m, $25.7m).
