Aston Villa defender Tommy Elphick spent the second half of this past season on loan at Reading.
Aston Villa fans have taken to social networking site Twitter to give their reaction to speculation that Tommy Elphick will join Reading on a permanent contract.
Elphick has been on the books of Villa since the summer of 2016 when he moved from Bournemouth for a transfer fee reported by The Birmingham Mail to be worth £3 million.
The 30-year-old defender spent the second half of the past season on loan at Reading, having moved to the Royals in the January transfer window.
According to The Reading Chronicle, Elphick is on the verge of switching to the Royals on a permanent contract.
It has been reported that Reading are now ready to take up the option of securing the services of the former Brighton and Hove Albion defender this summer.
Elphick had injury issues during his loan spell at the Madejski Stadium, making just three starts and only one substitute appearances for Reading.
Villa fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to Elphick reportedly set to join Reading on a permanent contract – they are not happy.
