After signing Ashley Young, Aston Villa head coach Dean Smith stated

“Ashley brings with him a wealth of experience of top-level football at club and international level – and he is joining us having just won a league championship in Italy.

“He is a player who can play in a number of positions and, having spoken to him at length, I know he is determined to make a real impact with us this season.”

Ashley Young feels good to return home after spending a year in Italy and has stated

“It feels amazing to be back, it’s like I never left.”

“I’m delighted to be here, seeing some old faces, being back at Bodymoor Heath and seeing how well the facilities have grown.

“You can see how much the club has evolved since my time and I’m ready to get down to work now.”

“When I heard of the interest from Aston Villa, it was straight to my agent ‘get a deal done, whatever you can, get a deal done.”

“Watching from afar, seeing the squad, how well they did last season, how well they’ve been doing.”

“The staff, the manager, how the players want to play for him; they’ve got that hunger, he’s got that desire, that winning mentality.”

“And, for me, I know I’ve got that winning mentality.”

“I think someone said (about me) ‘he’s coming to the end of his career’, ‘he hasn’t got that hunger any more’, ‘he’s just going there for a swansong.”

“That’s not me at all, I’ve still got that winning mentality, that winners’ attitude, that desire and hunger to go and win.”
