'A fair price' for 'combative' Gomes
Aston Villa needed to move after Amadou Onana suffered an anterior cruciate ligament injury on duty at the World Cup with Belgium, which threw a major spanner in Villa's transfer plans this summer. With Youri Tielemans being sold, Villa had a gaping hole in their midfield, even if Boubacar Kamara is due to return from his own serious knee injury, which he suffered in January. Joao Gomes arrives with the experience and Premier League know-how to hit the ground running under manager Unai Emery.
