Jack Grealish's Aston Villa first team exile continues after boss Remi Garde confirmed he will remain with the under-21s for the time being.
The midfielder will not play at Southampton on Saturday as he serves his punishment after being pictured in a nightclub following the 4-0 defeat at Everton almost two weeks ago.
Villa are bottom of the Barclays Premier League and seven points from the safety line but Garde will not call on Grealish to help them at St Mary's.
He said: "He has trained this week with the under-21s because it was the plan. He knew that. I know when he might return, he knows as well and when he will I will tell you.
"Like every player Jack made a mistake and he has to pay the consequences for that. If another player does something wrong he will have the same treatment.
"Jack is young and will be back because when he is fully committed in his job he will be a good player."
