With the Premier League stepping up their efforts to ensure ‘Operation Restart’ actually happens, despite the ongoing concerns most sensible people still have about the guarantee of a second wave as the country opens up more (and we get the figures from the idiots who can’t follow simple advice during a bank holiday), Aston Villa had some positive news on Monday – highly rated Academy graduate Indiana Vassilev had put pen to paper on a new two year extension at B6, keeping the 19-year-old with us until the summer of 2022.
Indiana Vassilev has signed a new two-year contract with Aston Villa! βοΈ#MondayMotivation #AVFC

The USA youth international has been a regular in our Under 23 setup so far during the 2019/20 campaign, and with injuries hitting head coach Dean Smith’s first team, the youngster made his bow against Fulham in the FA Cup back in January, and added three further showings as a substitute in matches against Leicester, Brighton and Watford.
"I'm really happy to sign for another two years, keep on working hard and hopefully the future will hold a lot of great things." π#AVFC

Whilst he didn’t find the net for us in those games, he impressed plenty with his determination and desire to put the yards in, so although we haven’t had a lot to shout about in the last few months, this is at least a positive as plenty expect him to develop well over the next few years.
@CalOhare next please…
