Aston Villa have reportedly made midfielder Fabian Delph available through the loan market.

The 22-year-old, who moved to Villa Park from Leeds United in August 2009, has not played for the Villains since December, having fallen out of favour with ex-boss Alex McLeish.

McLeish sent Delph back to Leeds on loan in January, where he suffered an ankle injury on Valentine's Day that ended his season.

Delph is back in training following the injury and new manager Paul Lambert wants to send him to a Championship side on a temporary basis in order to continue his rehabilitation, according to The Sun.

Delph has made 36 appearances in all competitions for Villa, scoring one goal.
