Young Completes Move To Villa

Young Completes Move To Villa

Luke Young has completed his move to Aston Villa for a reported fee of £5 million.

Young has signed a 3-year deal with Aston Villa FC. The defender follows in the footsteps of Nicky Shorey who completed a move today from Reading.

"This was too good an opportunity to miss," Young told the club's official website.

"I'm really pleased to be here at Villa. It's happened quite quickly.One minute I was training up at Boro and the next I'm down here for a medical."

Obviously I'm glad to be here now but it could have been a year earlier. There was interest last summer but it didn't quite happen for whatever reason. I'm just glad to find myself here now.
