During the 2021-22 season he was called up to first-team training by manager Steven Gerrard, [5] and featured in friendly matches for the club. [6] That season, he was included in Villa match-day squads and named as a substitute for matches in the Premier League without making his debut. [7] He made his debut in the EFL Trophy against AFC Wimbledon in August 2022. [8] The following season he captained the Aston Villa side in the competition. [9]

A diminutive but skillful midfielder, he has been nicknamed "Philly" or "Fodes" by his Aston Villa academy youth teammates because of a perceived similarity to Phil Foden in his playing style. He has also been nicknamed "Tommi Wilshere", after Jack Wilshere, in his time at Villa. [15]
