Aston Villa has begun negotiations with Emiliano Buendia to extend the contract. The Daily Mail reports about it.
The 29-year-old Argentine's agreement with the Birmingham club has been insured until the end of 2027 and there is an option to extend it for another season. At the same time, Aston Willie’s government wants to prevent the player from expiring the remaining 18 months of his contract before the upcoming one.
Buendia survived a serious restart of his career in 2026. Last year, the struggling player scored one of the biggest goals of the season in the final match of the European League against Freiburg in Istanbul, helping Aston Villa win their first great trophy since 1996.
The Argentine showed himself no less effective in the match against Tottenham before the international break. He scored in a 3:2 win for his team, and this goal became Buendia's third in three remaining matches at Tottenham Stadium.
The situation has changed dramatically since the summer of 2025. Todi Buendia was practically not included in the plan of Unai Emeri, and Aston Villa initially introduced the footballer to the resident Birmingham. .
