The West Bromwich Albion midfielder is a rumoured target for old boss Steve Bruce at Aston Villa.
Aston Villa and West Bromwich Albion fans are reacting on Twitter after Villans boss Steve Bruce allegedly put West Baggies midfielder Jake Livermore at the top of his summer wanted list.
The Sun on Sunday reported that Bruce – who signed Livermore for Hull City four years ago – wants the 28-year-old should Villa win promotion this season.
With West Brom heading for the drop, the report claims the Villans should be able to land the England midfielder for a ‘relatively cheap’ £10 million.
And some of the Villa faithful are re-evaluating their ambitions as a result.
Here’s what they’re saying on Twitter…
And Livermore, it seems, is equally unpopular at The Hawthorns – despite having played twice for England this season.
The 57-year-old has already linked up with three of his former Hull players – James Chester, Ahmed Elmohamady and Robert Snodgrass – at Aston Villa.
Chester also arrived at Villa Park via West Brom, although he is the only one not to have been signed by Bruce.
At £10 million, would Livermore be a good signing for Aston Villa?
