Kadan Christophe Young (born 19 January 2006) is an English professional footballer who plays as a winger for League One club Reading, on loan from Premier League club Aston Villa.

Club career
Having started out with local club Phoenix United in Erdington, Young trialled with a host of professional sides before eventually joining Premier League side Aston Villa at under-13 level. He went on to sign a scholarship deal with the club in July 2022, and during the mid-season break for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, he was a surprise inclusion in Aston Villa's squad for a warm-weather training camp in December of the same year. Prior to the squad flying to Dubai for the training camp, he featured in a friendly against Cardiff City - his unofficial first team debut.

While on the tour, he continued to feature in friendlies, playing ten minutes at the end of a 2–2 draw against Brighton & Hove Albion before being brought on as a half-time substitute for Arjan Raikhy against Chelsea. Playing on the right wing, he impressed against Chelsea's full-back, Marc Cucurella, earning plaudits for his performance in a 1–0 win. Following the conclusion of the warm-weather camp, he signed his first professional contract with the club in January 2023. On 18 September 2024, Young signed a long-term contract extension with Aston Villa.

On 24 September 2024, Young made his senior debut in a 2–1 away victory over Wycombe Wanderers in the EFL Cup.

On 3 February 2025, Young signed for Belgian Pro League club Royal Antwerp on loan until the end of the season. Young made his Belgian Pro League debut on 15 February, in a 2–1 victory over Kortrijk.

On 29 January 2026, Young made his European debut in the UEFA Europa League for Aston Villa, coming off the bench to assist Jamaldeen Jimoh-Aloba's winner in a 3–2 victory over Red Bull Salzburg.

On 2 February 2026, Young signed for League One club Reading on loan until the end of the season. Young made his English Football League debut on 14 February, in a 3–2 victory over Wycombe Wanderers.
