Jacob Ramsey injury update emerges after Aston Villa setbacks

Aston Villa attacking midfielder Jacob Ramsey is likely to be months away from returning to 100 per cent fitness, according to Dr Rajpal Brar.

The injury expert claims he has been stuck in a vicious cycle of setbacks and has mirrored Dan Bardell's comments about it being a real problem given how frequently he's spending spells on the sidelines.

Ramsey last played for Villa on 9 November when his side suffered a 2-0 defeat against Liverpool.

Speaking about this situation, Dr Brar, a doctor in physical therapy and a sports scientist, told Villa News: "Seeing constant injuries is never a good sign so I would agree with Bardell to an extent there as there certainly is a problem.

"A vicious injury cycle is difficult to get out of.

"Villa will have to really look at the root cause of the injuries and see if there are any underlying factors that can be addressed.

"I reckon he’s still a few weeks away from returning to first-team football and maybe months before he’s back at 100 per cent."

Jacob Ramsey is a difference maker for Aston Villa but is battling fitness issues

The Englishman has shown that he is a difference maker for the Villa Park outfit, but currently, he is battling severe fitness issues.

Last season, he played only 16 league games and this season, while he's played 10 already, he is still facing injury woes.

He is still expected to be ruled out for a few more weeks and it's important that he does not suffer a re-injury.
