Aston Villa contract updates
As cited by Birmingham Live, Aston Villa youngster Omari Kellyman has recently committed his future to Villa on a long-term deal, continuing the recent trend of the Villans being able to tie their prize assets down at Villa Park. Kellyman, who made his senior debut in claret and blue against Hibernian this campaign, has been heralded for his extremely high ceiling by Aston Villa academy manager Mark Harrison, who stated about the 18-year-old: “Everyone is delighted to see Omari sign his contract extension.
He then added: “Since he joined us he has shown an exemplary attitude and approach to his work, while performing consistently at Under-18 and Under-21 level, which led to him making his first team debut and training regularly with the first team. The first team staff have been very positive about his development so far and we look forward to that continuing. This is also a great example of the continued integration between the Academy and the first team.”
Kellyman has followed the likes of Ollie Watkins and trio John McGinn, Ezri Konsa and Tyrone Mings in choosing to sign up for the long term under Unai Emery at Villa Park, which is demonstrative of how exciting an environment Aston Villa is at the moment for those who are at the centre of their upward trajectory on the field.
