Jordan Graham out for the season

In a blow to Villa's Under 21 and Next Gen ambitions, promising wide man Jordan Graham has revealed on Twitter that he is OUT for the rest of the season. The news comes just a day after he featured in the latter stages of the Under 21s 4-0 triumph away at Sunderland.

It seems he's been diagnosed with severe tendinopathy.

On the train to London to see the knee specialist! Hopefully all goes well ✌ #ChilledDay
