Villa striker Jhon Duran is putting birthday celebrations on hold as he aims to shoot down Nottingham Forest on Saturday.
The Colombia international turns 21 on Friday but has no time for partying as Unai Emery’s Villa look to continue their revival against their high-flying Midlands rivals.
He told Amazon Prime:"I am definitely not going out to celebrate my birthday because my aim is to score on Saturday to celebrate." The former Chicago Fire star, who last season made plain his frustration at not getting enough playing time, claims to be enjoying his role in the squad.
