Aston Villa have announced that they have signed Manchester United defender Axel Tuanzebe on loan until the end of the season.
The Championship outfit are currently restricted in the transfer market due to having to comply with FFP obligations, but there is room for manoeuvre with loan deals and that has resulted in Steve Bruce moving for Tuanzebe.
The versatile youngster has only featured for 109 minutes in all competitions this season, and the England Under-21 international is determined to make an impact during his time in the West Midlands.
The 20-year-old told the club's official website: "I am delighted to be here.
"It's an exciting time at this football club and everyone is pushing for promotion – that's the big aim, you can feel that here. I am determined to help this club achieve its goal."
Tuanzebe could make his debut when Villa face Sheffield United at Bramall Lane on January 30.
