According to reports from the Daily Record (h/t the Birmingham Mail), Aston Villa are weighing up a move for Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Victor Wanyama.
Villa have already made three signings this month but it looks like they are looking for more additions before the transfer deadline.
Wanyama joined Tottenham from Southampton in 2016 and has made 97 appearances in all competitions.
The Kenya international has struggled for fitness in recent years and has dropped down the pecking order at the club. He has managed only 24 minutes of Premier League action this season, and is not in Jose Mourinho’s first-team plans.
The report claimed that Villa are keeping close tabs on Wanayama’s situation. Here are some of the best reactions from the Villa fans on Twitter:
That would be a huge signing.

we have Luiz, Marvelous & Drinkwater in his position. We need someone more offensive & creative. White-Gibbs or a cheeky bid for Lallana

This would be a good move. Physically imposing. Fed up of people saying Smith out. We need to remember all the shit we have been through to get here with poor owners and terrible management.

Are we looking to sign one player per African country to increase our fan base
