Chelsea fans have suggested that they would like to see Ruben Loftus-Cheek sign for Aston Villa this summer.

The Telegraph report that Villa are looking into the possibility of loaning Loftus-Cheek for the season, as they aim to strengthen their midfield.

The Chelsea midfielder has slipped down the pecking order at Stamford Bridge recently, with his injury problems seemingly stunting his progress.

And many Chelsea fans think that a move to Villa could suit all parties.

If Loftus-Cheek could get back to his best then he could be a wonderful addition to Villa’s side.

The England international is blessed with great technique and athleticism, but he does seem low on confidence at the moment.

Loftus-Cheek actually started Chelsea’s first-game of the season, but he was ineffective against Brighton & Hove Albion and his future has been heavily speculated about since.

If he was to move to Villa he could take some of the creative burden off Jack Grealish, and would surely enhance the quality available to the claret and blues boss.
