ASTON VILLA starlet Keinan Davis has ended speculation over his future by signing a new three year contract.
The teenage striker had been linked with Manchester United and Arsenal in recent weeks.
However Steve Bruce was always confident the youngster would benefit from learning his trade at Villa, where he has scored twice in 13 Championship appearances, since making his first top team start against Norwich in August.
Injuries to Jonathan Kojia and Gabby Agbonlahor have allowed Davis to seize his first team chance with both hands this season, after making his Villa debut against Spurs in the FA Cup last January.
The youngster has also broken into Keith Downing’s England Under-20 squad this season, although a hip injury kept him out of this week’s defeat to Germany.
He said: “It’s a great feeling to have signed a new contract.
