Aston Villa boss Emery pleased with 'very positive Kamara'

Aston Villa boss Unai Emery is confident of much more to come from Boubacar Kamara.

Kamara featured in Villa's final two matches before the World Cup break, after recovering from a knee injury which had kept him sidelined since mid-September.

Emery has been encouraged by the 22-year-old's performances but believes there is still room for improvement. Kamara joined Villa on a free transfer from Marseille in the summer.

Emery said: “He is young but he has experience, having played for Marseille and he's been very competitive.

“My first point of view of him is that he's competitive and tactically, he's a very good player.

“He can still improve a lot but at the beginning he's been very positive for us."
