Kachloul considers loan move

Aston Villa’s out-in-the-cold midfielder Hassan Kachloul is ready to consider a loan move if he is to continue to have no part to play in manager Graham Taylor’s plans.

The Moroccan international admitted over the weekend that he is “mystified” as to why he has been made a virtual outcast by Taylor since he returned for a second spell in charge at Villa 12 months ago.
