Aston Villa is pleased to announce that Kadan Young has signed his first professional contract with the club.
The winger signed his Under-18 scholarship in the summer and has been a regular fixture for Villa’s Under-21s this term.
Young has also trained regularly with the first team of late and has appeared on the bench for the senior side on a number of occasions.
Mark Harrison, Academy Manager, said: “We are delighted to see Kadan sign his first professional contract. He has been with us for many years and this is a great reflection of his hard work and the commitment shown by him and his family, who have given him great support.
“Kadan has always shown potential which saw him play in our Under-21s at the age of 16 while he was a schoolboy and represent England as well. Seeing him involved with the first team recently also reflects his potential but he also knows there is much work to do and we look forward to seeing him continue his journey for many years.”
Congratulations, Kadan!
