Aston Villa have been in talks with Maatsen and his management since August. Those negotiations have now produced an agreement on a multi-year contract for the Dutchman.
In 2024, Maatsen joined from Chelsea for €45 million. The left-back recently made his 100th appearance for the Europa League winners.
''Since arriving at Villa Park, Maatsen has become an important member of the squad. He has impressed supporters with his pace, energy and attacking qualities on the left flank.''
''At 24, Maatsen continues to develop as one of football's biggest talents, and he plays a key role in Villa's success, both in domestic competitions and in Europe'', the club's website says.
Maatsen spent several years under contract at Chelsea without breaking through. During that time, he went on loan to clubs including Coventry City and Burnley.
