After putting pen to paper on a deal to join Villa from Tottenham, Dawkins took a tour of his new club's training HQ before posing for photographs.

Dawkins described them as "amazing" before joining snapper Williams in the club's indoor playing facility for atmospheric shots.

When the photo-shoot was over, it was time to face the AVTV cameras where he expressed his delight at joining Villa as well as his hopes for the future.

The left-sided midfielder answered questions from presenter Jack Woodward.

Dawkins became Villa's tenth signing of the 2012-13 campaign, following on from Yacouba Sylla and summer arrivals Brett Holman, Karim El Ahmadi, Matt Lowton, Ron Vlaar, Jordan Bowery, Ashley Westwood, Joe Bennett and Christian Benteke.
