Dean Smith reveals his plan to get the best out of Morgan Sanson

Aston Villa manager Dean Smith has revealed his plan to get the best out of January signing Morgan Sanson.

The 26-year-old joined the Premier League club from Marseille in January for a fee of around £14 million but he is yet to start a Premier League game for the West Midlands club.

Smith has revealed that he has the luxury to ease the player in and that could benefit Sanson in the long run.

The Frenchman will need time to adapt to the English Premier League and Smith’s plan to use him sparingly, for now, could pay long term dividends.
