Aston Villa have finally confirmed the capture of midfielder Aaron Tshibola from Reading for an undisclosed fee (thought to be in the region of 5 million smackeroonies).
Tshibola, 21, has signed a four-year deal and flown straight out to Austria to team up with Roberto Di Matteo's squad on their preseason training camp.
"I am very happy that Aaron has joined," Di Matteo said.
"He's a highly-rated and well respected young player who will provide us with plenty of energy, courage and determination in the middle of the park.
"I am confident he will be a tremendous addition to our squad for the very important new season and beyond."
Tshibola is Villa's third signing of the summer, following the additions of defender Tommy Elphick from Bournemouth and goalkeeper Pierluigi Gollini from Hellas Verona. More additions are expected and there will be inevitable departures as the new boss looks to trim his bloated squad.
