Aston Villa boss Unai Emery is hopeful of Ollie Watkins soon penning a new deal.
Emery is eager to see an agreement closed.
"We are in talks," Emery said. "Really, hopefully he is going to sign for a long time with us. I am very happy and I think his commitment with us is really high every day, his behaviour.
"He is an example for other players and his performances as well are always at a good level for us.
"Sometimes scoring more goals, sometimes scoring less, but always doing his work."
