Aston Villa winger Marc Albrighton is determined to get back to his best.

The winger struggled with injuries last season and faces a crucial year in his career ahead of his contract expiring next summer.

"I just want to get fit and over the summer work hard," Albrighton said in the Birmingham Mail.

"I've got to sort of forfeit my holidays to some extent, but that's the sacrifices you've got to make if you want to make it to the top.

"I'm willing to do that just to get back to what I love doing next season."
