Biography

Tom Carroll

Player #928 for Aston Villa, Thomas James Carroll, known as Tom Carroll, played as a midfielder for the club in the 2018-19 season.

Carroll made 2 appearances, both as a substitute, in the Football League Championship.

Tom was born in Watford on 28 May 1992 and made his debut appearance for the Villa squad as a substitute away to Reading at the age of 26 on Saturday, 2 February 2019.

Villa had signed Carroll on loan from Swansea City in January 2019 until the end of the 2018-19 Football League Championship Season. However, injuries meant Carroll was only able to make one more appearance for Villa - on Saturday, 2 March 2019, before returning early to Swansea from his loan spell.

Carroll had played under Dean Smith
