Unai Emery’s contract extension with Aston Villa received widespread coverage today, as the Spaniard’s success at the club has been getting big recognition.
As the Colombian press speaks about this agreement, they take an interesting angle, which is the future of Jhon Jader Duran.
AS features a story telling a Colombian audience that Emery’s continuity at Aston Villa is actually ‘great news’ for the winger, who’s been receiving good guidance from the manager.
It’s pointed out that Emery has shown ‘caution, but also confidence’ in the 20-year-old, who’s slowly fighting for a place in Aston Villa’s team.
Duran joined Aston Villa in a €16.6m move from Chicago Fire in January 2023. Despite his slow adaptation, he’s made 31 appearances for the club this season, scoring six goals.
The youngster is just 20, and it’s definitely important for him that the manager who looks after him continues to be in charge of the club.
