Aston Villa have completed the signing of Emile Heskey from Wigan Athletic for £3.5million. The England international has put pen-to-paper on a three-and-a-half year deal at Villa Park.

Villa boss Martin O’Neill is excited: “I am absolutely delighted. Emile has been a brilliant player for a number of years and this is great news. It gives us all a big boost – the football club, myself and the players”.

“He has arrived at a really important time. We have got a bit of momentum going. We haven’t the largest squad in the world”.
