The England international, 27, moves to the West Midlands club for the remainder of the season with Villa holding an option to make the move permanent for £40million (€47.8m, $49.5m) in the summer.
Villa will cover a minimum of three-quarters of his wages for the duration of his stay at Villa Park and up to 90 per cent depending on performance-based bonuses.
If him and Watkins turn into some kind of super duo I’m gonna be mighty unpleased and possibly even slightly bothered.
Just wish him all the best, clearly it wasn’t working at United anymore.
It was a bit tongue in cheek. He’s gonna do great no matter where he goes.
