In a tough break for Aston Villa, manager Unai Emery has confirmed that midfielder Amadou Onana will miss Sunday's crucial Premier League clash against Tottenham Hotspur as the club assesses the severity of his injury.

The news comes at a challenging time for Villa, who are set to host a Spurs side fighting to avoid relegation—just three days after a disappointing defeat to Nottingham Forest in the first leg of the Europa League semi-final. The quick turnaround adds pressure to an already demanding schedule.

Onana, who had just returned from a previous layoff after missing the league loss to Fulham, was forced off after only 55 minutes in the Forest match due to a calf issue. The setback is a significant blow for Villa's midfield, as the Senegalese international has been a key figure in Emery's setup this season.

"He has a scan and we will see the consequences after, and see how he's feeling, but for Sunday, he's definitely not available," Emery stated, leaving fans anxious about the midfielder's recovery timeline.

With Onana sidelined, Villa will need to dig deep against a Tottenham side desperate for points. For fans looking to show support, now is the perfect time to gear up in your favorite Villa kit and rally behind the team as they navigate this tough stretch.
