Aston Villa defender Alex Moreno has signed for La Liga side Girona for an undisclosed fee.

Moreno made 29 appearances in his first full season, including 21 in the Premier League as Villa finished fourth to qualify for the Champions League.
However, he spent last season on loan at Nottingham Forest having falling behind Ian Maatsen and Lucas Digne in the pecking order at Villa and now returns to his native Spain.
