Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba

Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba of Aston Villa was born on 2 October 2006 (age 19).

Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba, born on 2 October 2006 (age 19), is an English attacking midfielder with Aston Villa. His senior career remains at an early stage, but the most substantial part of it so far came with West Bromwich Albion, where he made 10 league appearances in one season without scoring.

That West Brom spell still gives his career its main shape. It was not a long run, but it was the period in which he played most regularly at league level, rather than simply appearing around the edges of a first-team squad.

At Aston Villa in 2025-26, Jimoh-Aloba has made one league appearance and four in all competitions, including outings in the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League. His first Villa goal came in Europe.

For now, he is a young attacking midfielder with a brief but clear senior record: most of his league football has come at West Brom, while Aston Villa is where he is trying to build the next stage.

Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba was a fringe Aston Villa player in 2025-26, making one Premier League appearance from the bench and failing to score in the league. His cup involvement was broader – one appearance each in the FA Cup, League Cup and Europa League – and his only senior goal came in Europe. The numbers point to a development player used selectively rather than a regular part of the side.

Jimoh-Aloba's career record still reads like an early-stage profile. The listed league history before his Aston Villa breakthrough contains no recorded senior appearances, and his 2025-26 league role remained limited to one substitute outing. At 19, his trajectory was still defined by exposure and testing rather than an established first-team role.

The transfer history is straightforward: West Bromwich Albion to Aston Villa for an undisclosed fee in August 2023, followed by a loan back to West Brom in February 2026. That suggests Villa invested in his potential, then used the loan route after limited Premier League minutes.
