Gary Gardner set for Championship move

Gary Gardner is set to rejoin Nottingham Forest on loan after failing to break into the Aston Villa side for another season, according to Paul Taylor of the Nottingham Post.

The Aston Villa youngster failed to break into the squad under Tim Sherwood and Remi Garde this season, and it seems like he’ll have to wait another season until he pulls on a Claret and Blue shirt again.

This would be Gardner’s 2nd time on loan at the club, after appearing for them 18 times last season and scoring 4.

It is understood that the move will officially be confirmed within the next 24 hours, but it leaves question marks over Villa’s depth in Midfield, with the likes of Carlos Sanchez injured.

Gardner is contracted to Aston Villa til 2018 after signing an extension in the Summer, but it seems that he has a way to go yet until reaching the Aston Villa first team.
