Aston Villa can confirm defender Jordan Amavi has been ruled out for the rest of the 2015/16 Premier League season with a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament in his right knee.

The 21-year-old suffered the injury on Thursday night playing for France U21s against Northern Ireland in a European qualifying fixture.

The fall is not a failure. Failure is to stay where we fell ! Thank you for your messages #23 #NeverGiveUp #StayStrong #FightLikeLion ⚽️🙏🏾💪🏾
