Club Career
Andreas Weimann is yet to make a full first team appearance but has represented the club during the 2009 Peace Cup against Juventus, Atlante and F.C. Porto[1]. The promising striker has been a stalwart in the highly-rated Aston Villa Reserves side, particularly in the 2009/10 season filling the void left by Nathan Delfouneso.
Following an impressive stint in the reserves, Weimann signed a contract extension which will see him contracted to the club until June 2012.[2]
