Helenius working to keep spirits up for Villa crock Okore

Nicklas Helenius admits he's close to fellow Dane Jores Okore at Aston Villa.

Defender Okore is currently sidelined with a serious knee injury.

"We will support each other, and I help him to the extent that he needs it. I have not even been close to such a bad injury, so I do not know how to keep his spirits up. But we are good support for each other. He's out at the club every day and I ask how things are going," said Helenius.

"There is not much else to do but to be patient. I think that Jores is going on a little vacation. I also think that the club has thought about it. And he deserves it.

"Things have gone well me

"Right now, I'm happy here and I want to help my club."
