Aston Villa send Kinsella to Luton

Aston Villa youngster Lewis Kinsella has joined Luton Town on loan.

?The talented left-back, 20, will spend the remainder of the season with the Hatters who currently sit sixth on the League Two table.

?Kinsella has bene drafted in to provide cover for Luton full-back Scott Griffiths who has been sidelined by a hernia and requires surgery.

?Hatters boss John Still told the club's official website: "We are very lucky to have a player of Lewis' calibre - it speaks volumes that he has been on Villa's bench for their last two Premier League games.

?"With Scott unavailable and needing an operation we are light of players in that area, and with that in mind, we're delighted to be able to do a deal to bring Lewis to Luton Town.

?"He is very highly thought of at Villa Park and he has been training regularly with the first team. He's a young man but he's a tough and up-and-at-them defender, and whenever we've seen him play we've always been massively impressed."

?Kinsella will go straight into Still's squad for Saturday's trip to Northampton Town where he could make his Luton debut.
