Aston Villa youngster Brad Young has joined Carlisle United on a season-long loan.

The 18-year-old joins the Cumbrians for the rest of their League Two campaign. 

Young, who began this season with a brace for Villa Under-23s in Premier League 2, made his senior bow for the club when he came on against Liverpool in the FA Cup third round in January 2021.

Carlisle have made an unbeaten start to the League Two season, winning one and drawing one.

Good luck, Brad!
