Travis Patterson is an exciting left-sided player who has made rapid progress through the Academy ranks since arriving at the club as an Under-9. 

Patterson, who has represented England at U16, U17, U18 and U19 level, signed a new long-term contract in August 2024 before making his first-team debut as a substitute in Villa's Carabao Cup third-round trip to Wycombe Wanderers, featuring in numerous matchday squads. 

He would go on to represent Villa's younger ranks in Premier League 2, the Vertu Trophy and the UEFA Youth League over the course of the first half of the campaign, scoring twice and registering three assists, before joining MK Dons on loan for the remainder of the season in January. 

His first career loan at Stadium MK brought him seven appearances in League Two, at left-back, left-wing-back and on the left-wing. He spent the second half of the 2025/26 season on loan at French side FC Annecy.
