What happened. Alejandro Garnacho joined Aston Villa on a season-long loan from Chelsea in July, with the deal including a conditional obligation to buy. Villa boss Unai Emery has confirmed the club signed him for the long term despite his early struggles.

• Garnacho struggled at former club Manchester United and fell out with boss Ruben Amorim.
• He moved to Chelsea last summer for £40million but failed to make a significant impact.
• Chelsea finished 10th in the Premier League and missed out on European football.

Garnacho will look to rediscover his form at Villa Park as he aims to prove his long-term worth to Unai Emery.
