Aston Villa can confirm that Enzo Barrenechea has joined Valencia on loan.

The midfielder signed for Villa earlier this summer from Juventus and featured during Unai Emery’s pre-season preparations.

Barrenechea started his career at Newell’s Old Boys in his native Argentina before moving to Europe with Sion.

Last season he was on loan at Serie A side Frosinone, making 39 appearances.
