While Aaron Donald continues to negotiate with the Rams about returning to the Super Bowl champions, the star defensive tackle has completed talks on a new Los Angeles home.

The three-time NFL Defensive Player of the Year has purchased a sprawling 12,000-square-foot English Country-style house in the Hidden Hills gated community for $17.1 million.

The purchase comes just over a week after Donald sold his house in Calabasas for $6.3 million — $1.6 million more than he paid for it in 2018.

Donald’s new eight-bedroom, nine-bath home features high-end amenities including a movie theater, gym with a sauna, game room, infinity-edge pool and spa, sports court, four-stall barn, and a one-bedroom guest house.

Donald has three years remaining on the six-year, $135 million contract he signed with the Rams in 2018. 

After hinting at retirement following Los Angeles’ Super Bowl victory over the Bengals, he is reportedly in talks with the Rams on a new deal that would make him the highest-paid defensive player in the league.
