Watford star Ismaila Sarr's move to Aston Villa fell through after a failure to agree personal terms...but the two clubs confirm a loan move for central defender Kortney Hause

Watford have agreed a deal to take Aston Villa's Kortney Hause on loan for the season despite a deal between the two club's for Ismaila Sarr falling through.

Sarr was set for a bump up to the Premier League from the Championship side as Villa boss Steven Gerrard sought to bring the forward to the midlands this summer.

However their £27million move for the attacker was called off after the involved parties failed to agree personal terms and an acceptable payment structure for the transfer.
