John McGinn admits Aston Villa are making his dreams come true.

The club captain signed a new deal to 2027 this week.

McGinn said: “It was an easy one. The manager told me a few weeks ago, in fact probably a couple of months ago, that he was really happy with me and that he wanted me to extend my stay.

“I'm delighted to get it sorted. This is home for me now so another four years and I'm just really excited to be involved in what should be an exciting journey now.

“I'm living the dream. If you'd told me when I was young that I'd be playing in the Premier League against the best players in the world for a club like Aston Villa then I'd pinch myself."
