24-year-old Aston Villa ace scores superb solo goal in training ahead of Tottenham clash

Aston Villa have been preparing for their return to Premier League action following the international break as they head to Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday.

Unai Emery’s Villans have been in great form this season and can leapfrog Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs with victory at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.

♊On Thursday, the Villa media team shared footage on of Moussa Diaby scoring a superb solo goal in training ahead of the Spurs clash.

👍The 24-year-old races and slaloms past no fewer than four markers before letting rip with a fierce effort that found the top-right corner of the net.

🥀“Stop that, Moussa,” read the caption. Villa fans will certainly hope he doesn’t stop that when it’s Tottenham’s defence up against him on Sunday.

ꦫDiaby has been in great form for Aston Villa since they signed him for a reported £52million in the summer.

🧸The 24-year-old has registered three goals and three assists from 12 Premier League outings, helping the Villans go fifth in the table.

⛎Villa will hope for more of the same when they take on Tottenham, and predictions will definitely be a lot different to what they might’ve been just a few weeks ago.

๊Tottenham were unstoppable in the early stages of the season, but what happened in their 4-1 loss to Chelsea has had repercussions beyond those 90-plus minutes.
