Aston Villa ace Jhon Duran sends Unai Emery message after Colombia goal
Emery has been sparing in handing starting opportunities to the former Chicago Fire man despite consistent goalscoring form.
This season, Duran has hit a different level and as a result, the Spaniard is facing little choice but to start the striker in the coming weeks.
The Colombia international has capped off a superb start to the campaign with a goal for his country in yet another devastating substitute appearance.
This adds to a wondergoal against Everton and a top-class strike against Bayern Munich which have caught the attention of football fans across the world.
Despite signing a new contract at Villa Park, the striker may begin to grow frustrated if he isn’t handed first-team opportunities soon.
