Australian forward Brett Holman thinks that new signing Karim El Ahmadi will make an instant impact at Aston Villa this season.

Aston Villa forward Brett Holman thinks that fellow new signing Karim El Ahmadi will shine for Aston Villa this season.

The Australian has arrived at Villa Park, along with El Ahmadi, from the Dutch league and is convinced that the Moroccan midfielder will be a big hit.

Holman told the official club website: "I've played against him quite a few times in Holland and you can see what sort of player he is if you study the footage.

"He stands out in the teams he's played at, both Twente and Feyenoord. When he was at Twente he was one of the up-and-coming midfield players who was very highly thought of and was tipped to make it big."

The talented 27-year-old became Paul Lambert's first signing as Villa manager this summer, signing from Feyenoord for £2m.

El Ahmadi will expect to make his full debut for Villa against West Ham United on August 18.
