Some Aston Villa fans have taken to Twitter to give their reaction to speculation that the club are planning to make a bid for Celtic striker Odsonne Edouard.

According to The Sun, Villa are interested in signing Edouard from Scottish Premiership giants Celtic in the summer transfer window.

It has been reported that the Premier League club are planning to make a bid of £30 million for the Frenchman.

Edouard is one of the best strikers in the Scottish Premiership and is a key figure in the current Celtic team.

According to Transfermarkt.co.uk, the 22-year-old has scored three goals and provided one assist in three Scottish Premiership matches for Celtic so far this season.

During the 2019-20 campaign, the striker scored 21 goals and provided 12 assists in 27 league games, according to Transfermarkt.co.uk.

Villa narrowly avoided the dreaded drop to the Championship at the end of the past season, and for them to compete in the Premier League in 2020-21, they need to sign a prolific striker who will score goals on a regular basis.

Some Villa fans have given their take on speculation regarding Edouard, and below are some of the best comments:
