Some Aston Villa fans are confident that Arsenal will not be able to convince Emiliano Buendia to move to the Emirates Stadium.

The Sun has claimed that Arsenal and Villa both are interested in signing Buendia from Norwich City in the summer transfer window.

In fact, both the Gunners and the Villans have made bids for the 24-year-old Argentine playmaker.

The offers are £30 million plus, but Norwich, who will play in the Premier League next season, want £40 million.

Some Villa fans believe that the Villans will be able to sign the attacking midfielder ahead of Arsenal.

Below are some of the best comments:

You would say that some Villa fans are being ambitious.

After all, Arsenal are a massive club who were playing in the Champions League regularly not so long ago.

However, Villa are an ambitious club who are on the up.

The Villans appeared to be challenging for the Europa League places in the Premier League table in the first half of the season.

Dean Smith’s side ended the season in a respectable 11th place, just six points behind Arsenal, who finished eighth.

Arsenal will not play in Europe next season, but you would expect the Gunners to go again and at least challenge for the Premier League top four.
