"As per TBR Football, Graeme Bailey has confirmed that John McGinn has reached an agreement in principle to sign a new Aston Villa contract, which follows on from Matty Cash sealing a new deal of his own. It is great news for Villa that Roberto Olabe has hit the ground running, it shows a real relationship between him and Emery, that he can come in and just continue talks and indeed make quick progress."
"I am told Cash's deal is done and McGinn is also agreed in principle. Clearly they want to get these deals done before January, which makes sense as they can then attack the window fully. Talks over a deals for Rogers and Tielemans are also continuing, but are not as advanced at this point. McGinn has been a fantastic servant for Aston Villa since his 2018 move from Hibernian."
Aston Villa had a difficult start to the season but have won three consecutive Premier League matches and will face Manchester City at Villa Park on Sunday. The club is finalising contract renewals, with captain John McGinn reportedly agreeing in principle to a new deal following Matty Cash's recent extension. Sporting director Roberto Olabe has progressed negotiations quickly, reflecting a strong relationship with manager Unai Emery. Talks over deals for Rogers and Tielemans remain ongoing but are less advanced. McGinn joined from Hibernian in 2018 and has been used in multiple positions by Emery. McGinn had been linked with a return to Scotland but now appears set to remain at Villa Park for several more years.
