Al Fateh U18 Overview

Alejandro Garnacho has been warned that “alarm bells should be ringing" for him on the back of Manchester United and Chelsea flops, but Ray Houghton has told GOAL that Unai Emery can help to get the Argentina international back on track during a loan spell at Aston Villa. Said move may have seen the 22-year-old winger step into the Premier League’s last chance saloon.

Emi Martinez is seemingly eager to form part of the mass exodus at Aston Villa, but the World Cup-winning goalkeeper has avoided criticism for that transfer push from former Villans star Ray Houghton - who has been speaking exclusively to GOAL. The Argentina international has been seeking a move for over 12 months now, as he attempts to “make a lot of money” before hanging up his gloves.

Aston Villa captain John McGinn has issued an apology to supporters after Unai Emery's side suffered a humiliating 4-0 defeat at Brighton on Sunday. A nightmare first-half collapse saw Villa concede four goals, score an own goal, and have Joao Gomes sent off before the interval, leaving the visiting skipper furious with the opening-day capitulation.

Brighton and Hove Albion have announced the tragic death of a 72-year-old supporter who passed away after falling unwell shortly after Sunday's victory over Aston Villa. The fan was preparing to board a supporters' bus when the incident occurred, casting a devastating shadow over the opening weekend of the Premier League season at the Amex Stadium.
