Aaron Tshibola has only made 10 appearances in three years at Premier League newcomers Aston Villa.

Aaron Tshibola’s Aston Villa nightmare is almost over with the seldom-seen midfielder heading to Belgium, according to Het Laaste Nieuws.

A £5 million signing from Reading during the summer of 2016, Tshibola will go down as one of the most disappointing additions in Aston Villa’s recent history.

He has made just 10 appearances for the club during the reigns of Roberto Di Matteo, Steve Bruce and Dean Smith while spending time out on loan at Nottingham Forest, MK Dons and Kilmarnock.

But it seems that Tshibola is finally on the verge of a permanent departure from the Premier League newcomers. HLN claims that the 24-year-old is on his way to Waasland-Beveren, who are currently bottom of the Jupiler League standings with one point from a possible 15 so far.

Tshibola will be hoping that he can take the Saido Berahino route and re-build his reputation in the land of chocolate and prime-time detectives.

The Stoke City flop was offered an escape route out of the Potteries but Zulte Waregam and he has scored two goals in just three league games so far.
