On Tuesday, Aston Villa boss Dean Smith provided an injury update ahead of Monday night’s Premier League clash with West Ham United.

And Smith revealed that Jonathan Kodjia is unlikely to be available to face the Hammers due to a head injury.

The striker – a 2016 arrival from Bristol City – has not been seen in a Villa shirt since picking up an ankle injury against Tottenham Hotspur on the opening weekend of the 2019/20 campaign.

Smith has claimed that Kodjia could have been involved against Crystal Palace before the international break but the club decided not to take a risk.

The Ivory Coast international has now picked up a separate problem, though, which is likely to rule him out of the Premier League clash with Manuel Pellegrini’s side.
