Aston Villa have confirmed the arrival of Manchester United outcast Jadon Sancho on loan.
The 25-year-old is aiming to revive his career after a miserable time at Old Trafford, having also been farmed out last season to Chelsea.
As Daily Mail Sport previously reported, Villa and United made a breakthrough in talks and he has now joined Unai Emery's side.
He will hope to enjoy the same upturn in fortunes as Marcus Rashford did when sent on loan to Villa Park from United last season when deemed surplus to requirements by Ruben Amorim.
Sancho's contract with United is up next summer, although they have the option to extend it by an additional year.
Sancho is also joined at the club by former team-mate Victor Lindelof, a fellow deadline day signing.

The winger was loaned out to former club Borussia Dortmund in January 2024 and spent last season on a temporary deal at Chelsea.
Chelsea had an obligation to buy Sancho for £25million if they finished higher than 14th in the Premier League, which they did, but they decided to pay a £5m penalty fee instead.
Sancho was placed into Manchester United's bomb squad on his return to the club alongside Marcus Rashford, Antony, Tyrell Malacia and Alejandro Garnacho.
Rashford has since joined Barcelona on an initial loan deal while Garnacho sealed a £40m move to Chelsea on Saturday.
Sancho scored 12 goals in 83 games since joining the club from Dortmund for £73m in July 2021.
Villa have turned to the loan market once again and have also added Liverpool ace Harvey Elliott for the campaign with an obligation to buy him for £35million.
He will strengthen Villa's attacking resources in addition to Evann Guessand, who joined from Nice earlier in the window.
Having once been seen as a huge rising star in the game, Sancho and Villa will hope the fresh start can revive a career began brightly but has been on the decline.
At 25, the skilful wide man still has plenty of years left at the top if he can find his feet under Emery.
