Aston Villa Defender Tyrone Mings Extends Contract to 2027

Aston Villa defender Tyrone Mings has signed a one-year contract extension, extending his stay at the club until 2027. Since joining Villa from Bournemouth in 2019, Mings has become a key player, making over 180 appearances despite a serious knee injury that sidelined him for much of the previous season. He returned to action in January and contributed to 14 Premier League matches during the 2024-25 season. Although Villa narrowly missed Champions League qualification, finishing sixth after a controversial loss to Manchester United, Mings remains optimistic about the team's future under manager Unai Emery. He expressed gratitude for the support from fans, management, and teammates during his recovery and believes the club can achieve something special in the coming season. Villa's leadership also welcomed the extension, highlighting Mings' importance to the squad's ongoing journey.
