Aston Villa have loaned striker Nicklas Helenius back to Aalborg after a disappointing season.

The 23-year-old Denmark international signed a three-year deal last summer after moving from Aalborg for an undisclosed fee, but he now moves back to the Superliga club for a season.

He made six substitute appearances for Villa, scoring once against Sheffield United in the FA Cup.

His agent revealed in May Helenius was not in Villa's plans for next season.
