Aston Villa announce long-term contract extension as agreement reached
Aston Villa have proved their ambition in recent years and are keen on maintaining their excellent progress.
The Villans have had an up and down campaign but finally appear to be on the right track after a 3-1 win against Club Brugge in the Champions League.
This has resulted in a positive atmosphere surrounding the B6 club, especially with an FA Cup quarter final also on the horizon.
Fans are set to be handed a new boost as a fresh contract announcement has been made at Villa Park.
Aston Villa announce Ben Broggio contract
There is plenty of excitement surrounding the West Midlands outfit right now and that only looks like improving under Unai Emery.
The Spaniard has done so much to build a squad which is capable of fighting on multiple fronts to a positive level.
With that being said, he will be keen to keep his squad together while introducing young talents from the Bodymoor Heath academy as time goes on.
One of the brightest prospects emerging at B6 is winger Broggio and now the teenager has penned a new deal at Villa Park.
Louie Anthony Sports Agency took to X (6 March) to reveal that the 18-year-old has agreed to a new long-term contract at Bodymoor.
This comes after making his first senior appearance for the Villans earlier in the season against Wycombe Wanderers in the Carabao Cup.
Aston Villa continue youth development with Broggio
There has been a track record over the years of excellent young talent emerging from Villa Park.
This season, the progress of Lamare Bogarde has been eye catching as Emery has shown continued faith in his abilities across a range of positions.
The Dutchman has been afforded chances in the Premier League and Champions League, being a perfect utility man under the Spanish head coach.
| Stat per 90 (Premier League 24/25) | Lamare Bogarde |
| Pass accuracy (%) | 88.1 |
| Dribble success (%) | 66.7 |
| Duels won | 6.25 |
| Defensive actions | 8.62 |
Arguably the biggest name to emerge from B6 is Jack Grealish who has gone on to win almost everything there is to win with Manchester City.
With Broggio, Villa feel like they have a similar asset to that of the England international who went on to be sold for £100million.
It is no surprise that the Villans have opted to tie the youngster down to a new deal and it will certainly be interesting to see how he adapts in the coming months.
