England U17 defender Easah Suliman has committed himself to Aston Villa.

The Daily Mail says Suliman, who is from Hall Green in Birmingham, has been with Villa since he was eight years old and was spotted playing in a tournament at Butlins.

Bayern Munich and Liverpool had been in contact with the teen.

But he will sign a two-and-a-half-year professional contract on Friday ahead of his 17th birthday next week.
