Arsenal goalkeeper Stuart Taylor has agreed to join Aston Villa and will sign a four-year deal this afternoon after completing a medical.
The former England Under-21 international will provide back-up for first choice keeper Thomas Sorensen.
Taylor, 24, made 30 senior appearances for the
Gunners and has also enjoyed loan spells with a number of clubs - most recently Leicester last term.
And with first-team opportunities at the
Gunners likely to remain limited, Taylor has made the decision to move on in order to further his footballing career.
