“Aston Villa are delighted to announce that Jhon Durán has signed a new contract with the club until 2030. The 20-year-old has been in sparkling form at the start of this season, scoring six times, including the only goal on Wednesday night which sealed a famous win over German giants Bayern Munich in the Champions League,” the club said in a statement on Monday via its website.
Durán’s standout performances have also seen him score decisive goals in Premier League matches against West Ham, Leicester City, and Everton, the latter featuring a stunning long-range strike.
The Colombian international joined Aston Villa in January 2023 from MLS club Chicago Fire and has quickly become an integral part of the squad.
Durán has emerged as one of the Premier League’s most unpredictable talents, with manager Unai Emery predicting the Colombian forward could become a £100 million star.
A report by The Telegraph in September noted that Durán has proven to be a game-changer, with eight Premier League goals as a substitute, including a spectacular 30-yard winner against Everton earlier last month.
