# Aston Villa’s Mitchell Clark sidelined for three weeks

Aston Villa youngster Mitchell Clark has been ruled out for three weeks after picking up a hamstring injury.

The full-back is currently on loan from Villa to Port Vale, where has put in some impressive performances this season.

The injury comes as a blow to his progress and he will be hoping to be back to full fitness in time for the busy Christmas fixture schedule.

Clark was taken off at half-time during Saturday’s home loss against Swindon Town.

The 19-year-old has settled into the Port Vale squad nicely and said earlier in the season:

> I feel like I’ve played well. I’d rather have the team play well rather than me as it’s a team game, but I’m enjoying it and I know I’m coming here to play first-team football which is good.
