Scottish midfielder Aidan Borland has signed pro forms with Aston Villa.
Borland joined Villa last year from Celtic.
We are delighted to see Aidan sign his first professional contract," said Academy manager Mark Harrison to Villa's website. We've been really pleased with his progress which has seen him become a regular in our U21 team at the age of 16.
He is an intelligent, hard-working, technically efficient midfielder with the ability to score from long range.
We look forward to working with him over the next few years and seeing how he progresses."
