Yacouba Sylla, who joined Aston Villa in January 2013, is eager to return to France due to his lack of playing time with the club. Despite acknowledging that his situation is not dire, he expressed dissatisfaction with his inability to regularly feature on the pitch.
In his time in the Premier League, Sylla has made eleven appearances, five of which were as a starter. However, he feels that for his development as a player, he needs consistent playing time, which he has not been getting at Aston Villa.
Sylla expressed his intention to seek a loan move during the upcoming summer transfer window to secure regular game time. He had considered leaving earlier but was persuaded to stay by the coach, only to find himself sidelined.
His preference is to return to France on a one-year loan deal with a club that offers a good project and the opportunity to showcase his abilities. Sylla emphasized his desire to play in Ligue 1 and is open to joining a team with ambitious plans.
