Many Aston Villa fans have reacted after the Express & Star reported the extension of midfielder Danny Drinkwater's loan deal.

The Midlands based side remain in the bottom three of the Premier League after a poor run of form since the restart of the 2019/2020 season, which was stalled due to the pandemic.

Villa, who have been largely inconsistent throughout the campaign, will be desperate to keep their top-flight status after only gaining promotion via the play-off final last season.

With the final games of the season coming thick and fast, the club have now agreed a loan extension for Chelsea midfielder Drinkwater.

The former Leicester City Premier League winner arrived on loan during the January transfer window but he is yet to make an impression having featured just four times so far.

Added to that, he has also been involved in a training ground bust-up with teammate Jota earlier this year.

A loan extension has now been agreed which will mean the midfielder will now remain at Villa Park until the end of 2019/2020 season before returning to parent club Chelsea.
