A scan has revealed that Juan Pablo Angel is not suffering from a serious knee injury. Aston Villa’s record signing has been struggling for full fitness since suffering the injury a fortnight ago, however, it is nothing more than severe bruising and the Colombian international he may even return for Villa’s Worthington Cup clash with Luton.
Angel had been struggling to find his form even prior to the injury and had not scored in five Premiership games. The player had thought he would be quitting Villa in the summer after admitting to being unsettled but the club received no concrete offers for his services.
