Jacob Ramsey extends with Aston Villa

Jacob Ramsey has signed a new contract with Aston Villa, extending with the club until 2027.

Having made 22 league appearances for Villa in 2020-21, Ramsey has gone on to make 30 this season and has been a bright spot in an otherwise uninspiring season.

The 20-year-old has played 75 per cent of available minutes in the Premier League this season for Villa, and ranks third among the team's midfielders for both successful passes (32.83) and tackles won (1.55) per 90 minutes.

The Villa youth product scored his first goal in the Premier League against Arsenal in October, Ramsey has added five to that tally since, including a brace against Leeds United in February.

Steven Gerrard's side face Norwich City this Saturday.
