Harwood-Bellis has officially joined Aston Villa. Following his signing, he gave his first official interview with the club, discussing his feelings about the move, his expectations of the head coach, and topics including the Champions League, his personal characteristics, and Villa's supporters.

Welcome to Aston Villa. How are you feeling now that you've signed with the club?

I'm very proud. Of course, joining a club like Aston Villa means everything to me, and to my family as well. So I'm incredibly proud.

Coming to a club with Villa's stature is something I've always worked toward in my career. Now that I'm here, the next step is to keep pushing forward. I feel like I'm at a stage in my career where I'm ready to take that next step.

Clearly, coming to a club like this, with a coach like this, and the club's status, plus the squad that's been assembled, I think it's a perfect fit for me. For me, this is probably the ideal choice. Since arriving here, I can continue to develop my game while also bringing what I can contribute to the team and keep improving myself.

I still have many areas to improve, and at the same time, I'll contribute what I can to the team. Getting to work with a coach like this—and everything I've heard about him has been positive. We all know he can develop players. That's what I want to do here, and I also hope to win matches in the process.

I feel that every club I've played for has allowed me to develop in different aspects. I've also learned from every head coach I've worked with. Now, being able to play under a coach like this here means everything to me. This is a huge step, and it's an opportunity I'll try to seize. I'm willing to learn. As I said before, I still have many things to improve. But I also hope he can continue to help me build on my existing abilities and further develop my strengths. I hope to get started as soon as possible, and as I said, win matches in the process.

Physically, I'm in the best condition of my career. Mentally, I feel stronger than ever. I showed that in matches last season, and I want to say that joining a club like Aston Villa now is a dream for me.

So I'm ready to push forward and ready to prove that I've developed. I also want to repay the faith of the head coach and coaching staff, who believed in me and brought me here.

On Villa

First, the club itself is a very prestigious Premier League club, and beyond that is the Champions League, which excites me even more. I can't wait to get on the pitch and hopefully prove that I can perform at the highest level. Of course, we've also seen the club's success in Europe—they won the Europa League and also went very far in the Champions League. That season, they also gave Paris Saint-Germain one of their toughest matches, which is remarkable. So I know this club can make a difference in Europe, and hopefully we can take another step forward.

Off the pitch, what I can bring is leadership and determination. I'm willing to do everything to win, and I think I've proven this while playing for other clubs in the past. I think anyone who's watched me play can see that I leave everything on the pitch, and I'm willing to do whatever it takes to win. People who've worked with me always mention my determination and passion when they talk about me. As for my performance on the pitch, I think, as I said before, I have dribbling ability. Clearly, my defending has improved significantly as well.

But I'm willing to start from scratch, I want to keep pushing forward, and I want to continue developing. As for the characteristics I can bring to the team on the pitch, I'd still rather let my performances speak for themselves. Now, I can't wait to get started. I still remember when we played against them that season. Clearly, we lost that match, but the atmosphere was absolutely incredible. It's a very difficult place to play.

So having those supporters on my side now will be amazing. I can't wait to get on the pitch. We all know how passionate they are, both at home and away. When we played against Villa at St Mary's previously, their away supporters didn't stop throughout the match. So I can't wait to play in front of them. Now they'll be on our side, and hopefully we can have some great moments together this season.
