Abraham played in the Community Shield after coming off the bench and got 67 minutes of action in the 1-0 pre-season win over Lyon at Stamford Bridge.

But he was left out of Maurizio Sarri's squad for the 3-0 win at Huddersfield.

Bruce took Manchester United youngster Axel Tuanzebe, 20, on loan again but wanted to sign the defender and midfielder permanently.

United see him as having a promising future though and want to give him more experience.

Villa managed to keep hold of Jack Grealish and are in the process of negotiating a new contract for the playmaking midfielder.

The 22-year-old missed out on a switch to Spurs before the deadline, but Tottenham could not settle on a fee with Villa after offering £25million.
