Yannick Djalo claims Aston Villa deal

Portuguese international Yannick Djalo has claimed that he has agreed a deal to move to Aston Villa in January.

The 25-year-old has been in dispute with Sporting Lisbon after they refused to take him back following a botched move to Nice over the summer.

FIFA would not allow the transfer to go through as they said that it had not been completed in time.

Djalo has now claimed on his official Facebook page that he is bound for Villa Park.
