HEARTBREAKING:ASTON VILLA HEAD COACH RECEIVE A HEARTBREAKING CONTRACT DISMISSAL….
Aston Villa have confirmed that young pair Jamal Jimoh-Aloba and Triston Rowe have signed new deals at the club. Jimoh-Aloba only arrived at Villa from West Bromwich Albion as a highly rated prospect last season and he has now agreed a long-term contract after an initial 12-month agreement last year.
Jimoh-Aloba is only 17 but played for the Villa under 21s in the EFL Trophy win at Fleetwood and Unai Emery last month gave him his senior debut by giving him a run-out in the EFL Cup win at Wycombe Wanderers, after a summer in which he’d been involved with the first team in pre-season.
“Over the last 12 months Jamal has developed into a regular for our Under-21s, which led to him making his senior first-team debut in the Carabao Cup against Wycombe recently at the young age of 17,” head of academy Mark Harrison said. “Jamal has also represented England at Under-17, Under-18 level and is on standby for the upcoming Under-19 fixtures against Portugal, Netherlands and France.

“Jamal has shown real potential as a midfielder who can manage the ball and carry it forward with an attacking threat. This contract is a well-earned reward for Jamal’s development since he joined us and the potential the club believe he has to develop into a first-team player. We are delighted to see Jamal sign a new long-term contract.”
Rowe, like Jimoh-Aloba, signed for Villa from Albion back in 2021 and he has been a regular in the academy sides while he was also in the squad at Wycombe in the third round of the EFL Cup.
