Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins has signed a new long-term contract at the club.<\/p>\n

The forward, recalled to the England squad this week, is believed to have penned a five-year deal and has scored 50 goals for Villa since joining from Brentford in 2020.<\/p>\n

He netted 15 times last season to help Villa return to Europe and had been in talks over a new deal for around six months.<\/p>\n

Boss Unai Emery said: \u201cHe is always very demanding, to learn and improve. He is doing that here. I have been working with him more or less for one year and today is the same as the first day, our method in the training ground.\u201d<\/p>\n

Watkins has scored seven times this season, including two hat-tricks, ahead of Sunday\u2019s trip to Wolves.<\/p>\n
