Aston Villa star John McGinn has described the club’s 2026 UEFA Europa League triumph as the proudest night of his career.
Recall that Aston Villa thrashed Freiburg 3-0 in Wednesday’s Europa League final.
McGinn called the victory the pinnacle of his time at Villa, reflecting on the journey from battling in the Championship seven years ago to European champions.
“I can’t believe it to be honest. What we’ve been through as a club, this club is close to being in a right bad way seven years ago,” McGinn told TNT Sports.

” Sports bought the club over. Their one remit was to get it back to the Premier League and back to the levels of before.
“Tonight was everything we built coming together. The pride I felt with 10 minutes to go knowing we were about to be champions – I cant describe it.
“I’ll try to enjoy it. I like to party but I’ll take it easy to try and soak it all in.
“Being 31, in my first European final, I’ve seen my mates (Jack) Grealish and (Andy) Robertson win. It’s my turn. It’s so special, I’ll cherish every minute.”
