Marcus Rashford was confirmed as the club's third winter transfer arrival on Sunday evening and Marco Asensio has been confirmed as the fourth. Villa are also confident of signing Axel Disasi after finding an agreement with Chelsea.

Aston Villa completed a long-awaited transfer from Chelsea in a deal that will delight manager Unai Emery. The Villans have spent much of the transfer window seeking to strengthen from the Blues, with both Joao Neves and Axel Disasi linked with a move to the Birmingham outfit from the Stamford Bridge side.

Aston Villa and Chelsea are believed to have submitted a deal sheet in time to complete Axel Disasi's loan move to Villa Park, according to journalist Matt Law. The 11pm transfer deadline has now expired and despite reports claiming Disasi would be heading to Aston Villa late on Monday, no confirmation of a deal has been made by either club.
