Aston Villa reportedly want Douglas Luiz of Manchester City.

Douglas Luiz of Girona FC looks on during the La Liga match between RC Celta de Vigo and Girona FC at Abanca-Balaídos on April 20, 2019 in Vigo, Spain.

Aston Villa fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation linking the club with a move for Manchester City central midfielder Douglas Luiz.

According to The Telegraph, Villa are set to sign Luiz from fellow Premier League club City in the summer transfer window.

It has been reported that the Villans will pay the Citizens a transfer fee of £15 million in order to secure the services of the 21-year-old Brazilian.

Villa fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation regarding Luiz, and some believe that he is a better player than reported target and Leeds United central midfielder Kalvin Phillips.

Phillips is one of the best central midfielders in the Championship, and the 23-year-old has been linked with moves away from Leeds in the summer transfer window.

According to The Mirror, Tottenham Hotspur, Newcastle and Villa are interested in securing the services of the 23-year-old, with the Whites demanding £30m as transfer fee for him.

According to WhoScored, Phillips made 44 appearances in the Championship for Leeds last season, scoring one goal and providing three assists in the process.
