Axel Tuanzebe, on loan from Manchester United, is ready for Aston Villa’s playoffs push.
Tuanzebe, who is on loan at Championship club Villa from Premier League side United at the moment, had been on the sidelines for four months due to a broken bone in his foot.
The 21-year-old is back in the Villans’ team and is playing well at the moment, and the young defender – who earns £260,000 per year as salary, according to Spotrac.com – has said that he feels refreshed now.
Tuanzebe told The Birmingham Mail: “Obviously the injury is not something I planned for or wished to happen but I do feel refreshed now. I am ready to go and give it one last big push.”
Encouraging for Aston Villa fans
Villa have secured their place in the top six of the Championship table this season and will be aiming to clinch promotion to the Premier League via the playoffs.
The Villans will face either Leeds United or West Bromwich Albion in the playoff semi-finals, and Tuanzebe feeling refreshed and ready to go is very encouraging in terms of Villa’s chances of winning the playoffs.
Villa will face Norwich City at Villa Park in the Championship on Sunday afternoon.
