John Duran, who is drawing attention in the English Premier League (EPL), has signed a contract.

Aston Villa announced on its official website on the 7th (Korea Standard Time) that 'Duran has signed a new contract with Villa' Villa signed a new contract with the club until 2030. He scored six goals in the first half of this season, showing a brilliant performance.

Born in 2003, striker Duran is one of the most sought-after players in the EPL this season. His strengths are excellent speed, physicality, and strong shooting, and his goal-making ability has recently been highly evaluated.

Duran, who made his professional debut with Envigado in 2019, moved to the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS) stage with his performance. He raised his potential by playing for the Chicago Fire and began his European career in earnest by moving to Villa in the 2022-2023 season. Duran's performance in the two seasons since joining was disappointing. He played 49 games and scored only eight goals. In the previous summer transfer market, there was a high possibility that Chelsea wanted Duran and left the villa.

However, Duran chose to stay, and Duran, who remains in the villa, is raising his stock price by playing as the strongest sub-resource in the league this season. Duran has scored six goals in 10 games this season, five of them as substitutes. The replacement player consistently scores points and is used as a powerful weapon for Villa.

Manuel Neuer's powerful over-the-top shot against Bayern Munich in the second round of the last European Champions League phase proved Duran's recent rise. Villa won 1-0 thanks to Duran's score.

However, Duran's words and actions could not be stopped even by Villa. Duran said in an interview after Bayern "I'm glad I scored today. I am especially happy to score against a team like Bayern, the club I want to play for. Against my dream club, the team, I'm happy to be the man of the match…" he embarrassed Villa by showing his affection for Bayern. After Duran's remarks, there was even news that Bayern could be aiming for Duran in the upcoming summer.

However, Villa re-signed immediately after Duran's remarks, ensuring that Duran will not leave for the time being.

English Football Insider added: "'Villa is set to include a huge pay rise in his new contract with Duran, and he will receive the same level of weekly pay as many players in the first-team squad as well' He said he gave me a clear reward.
