Aston Villa is pleased to announce Travis Patterson has signed his first professional contract with the club.
After signing a scholarship in the summer, the forward has already featured a number of times for Villa’s Under-21s this season and has also played for England’s Under-17s.
Academy Manager Mark Harrison said: “Travis has been with the club since Under-9 so it is great to see him rewarded with a professional contract, a recognition of not only his development so far but also the potential he has.
“He played last season for the Under-21s as a 16-year-old on several occasions, including the EFL Trophy competition, and also represented England at youth level. We really look forward to seeing how he develops over the next few years.”
