He spent the second-half of the past campaign in the fourth tier with Walsall and seemed to enjoy his time there.

Thoughts
The fact Villa have extended his contract shows how highly-rated he is by Dean Smith’s side.
Salford and Leyton Orient have both been making some shrewd signings this summer and are looking like genuine promotion contenders for next season.
Swindon will be looking to bounce back from relegation from League One but need to sort their off-field issues out.
