Free agent Ashley Young is making the most of his summer holidays after showcasing his latest art investment following his second departure from Aston Villa.

And this one will stick with the utility man for life after he unveiled the fully finished back tattoo that takes inspiration from his on-field career. The future looks uncertain for the former Manchester United man after leaving Villa Park this month, but one thing that isn't in question is his love of the game.

One need only look at his back canvas for proof of that, depicting a man and child in front of a packed stadium, with the latter sporting Young's No. 18 jersey.

Text painted above and below the scene reads: "Nothing or no one can hold you back when you realise the power you possess is limitless."
