Aston Villa fans are more concerned about signing Sam Johnstone than Tottenham Hotspur’s Josh Onomah.

Steve Bruce has confirmed to the Birmingham Mail that Aston Villa want to sign Tottenham Hotspur’s Josh Onomah, but Villa fans believe that tying down Sam Johnstone will be more important.

Onomah has joined Villa on loan for Spurs for the course of the season, and his performances have caught the eye.

The England youth international was in sparkling form during the claret and blues’ last match, as Villa won 2-1 against their fellow promotion contenders.

And Bruce stated after the match that he wanted to snap up Onomah on a permeant deal.

He said: “Josh Onomah was terrific today.

“We’ll try and break the bank for him!

“But we know Spurs have got a very good player there.”

While Villa signing would be a statement of their intent, Villa fans are more interested in seeing Johnstone tied down.

Johnstone is currently on his second loan spell at Villa from Manchester United, and he is continuing to impress.

The 24-year-old how looked rock solid in net for the Villans, and is clearly a very popular figure at Villa Park.

Bruce has suggested that Villa will go after Johnstone in the Birmingham Mail, and his arrival on a long-term contract would go down well at Villa Park.
