Eredivisie side PSV Eindhoven sign winger Anwar El Ghazi from Aston Villa for £2.5m... bringing to an end Ruud van Nistelrooy's side's search for a winger

Aston Villa have sold winger Anwar El Ghazi to Eredivisie side PSV Eindhoven for £2.5million.

The Dutchman has fallen down the pecking order in the last year at Villa Park following the arrivals of Philippe Coutinho, Leon Bailey and Emiliano Buendia.

El Ghazi spent the second half of last season on loan at Everton, yet made just two cameo appearances for Frank Lampard's side.
