Aston Villa starlet Viljami Sinisalo becomes Ayr United's latest signing as Finnish goalkeeper joins on loan

Ayr United have today boosted their squad with the arrival of Finnish stopper Viljami Sinisalo on loan from Aston Villa.

The 18-year-old, highly rated at Villa Park, has joined Mark Kerr's men on a deal until the end of the season.

Sinisalo is the number one for Villa's under 23 side and a regular for the Finland under 19s.

A delighted Kerr told the Ayr United website: "Villa consider Viljami one of the best of his age, anywhere in Europe.

"He is extremely highly rated and has been training with the Villa first team for the last year.

"We have had him up to have a look at him and he has shown us the level of his potential and our goalkeeping coach has been hugely impressed by him."

The 6ft 2in keeper is expected to go straight into the squad for Ayr's friendly at Falkirk tomorrow.
