Amadou Onana

Aston Villa midfielder Amadou Onana (24) has been ruled out of Saturday’s match against Nottingham Forest after suffering a hamstring injury earlier in the week. The Belgian international was forced off during Tuesday’s game and has not recovered in time, with Unai Emery confirming that several players, including Onana, remain unavailable. Onana’s injury is not believed to be long-term, and the club is hopeful he can return for the midweek clash against Crystal Palace. (Source Aston Villa)
