Aston Villa defender Lucas Digne: Next seasons will be best of career

Aston Villa defender Lucas Digne feels there's more to come from him.

Digne became the first in a series of statement signings by Villa boss Steven Gerrard when he joined from the Toffees.

The £25million January signing from Everton enjoyed a strong finish to the season, setting up four of Villa's last seven goals.

And the 28-year-old left-back is promising more next term as he enters the prime of his career.

He said: “In general – after half a season at Villa Park – it has been good already, and it will be even better in the future – for the team and for myself.

“I'm coming up to the best age for a football player – and I believe that the next few seasons will be the best in my career."
