Newcastle United defensive midfielder Isaac Hayden is reportedly on the radar of Aston Villa.

According to The Chronicle, Aston Villa could make a move for Newcastle United defensive midfielder Isaac Hayden if they win promotion to the Premier League for the 2019-20 campaign.

Villa have reached the final of the Championship playoff final this season and will take on Derby County at Wembley Stadium in London next week.

It has been reported that should the Villans get promoted to the top flight of English football, then they could make a move for the 24-year-old defensive midfielder this summer.

The Villans, though, will face competition for the former Arsenal prospect, with The Chronicle reporting of interest in the ex-England Under-21 international from Premier League duo West Ham United and Brighton and Hove Albion.

Good signing for Aston Villa?

Hayden is a good defensive midfielder and has experience in the Premier League, and the Englishman will be a good signing for Villa for the 2019-20 Premier League campaign.

Newcastle, though, will not sell the defensive midfielder on the cheap, with The Chronicle reporting that they are likely to demand a transfer fee of over £15 million.
