Aston Villa have been linked with a move for the Southampton midfielder James Ward-Prowse, as per reports we covered yesterday.

The Midlands club recently agreed on a deal to sign Emiliano Buendia from Norwich City, and it seems that Dean Smith is not finished strengthening his midfield just yet.

The 26-year-old has been a quality Premier League player over the years, and he could prove to be a smart addition to Villa’s team.

They are missing a central midfielder with Ward-Prowse’s passing range and set-piece prowess.

Jack Grealish wins a few free-kicks due to his dribbling ability, and the Southampton star has the skills to cash in.

Southampton are not keen on selling Ward-Prowse, but Villa may attempt to change their stance with a significant offer in the coming weeks.

A move to Villa Park would be a step up in Ward-Prowse’s career, and he could be tempted to make the move. He would get to play alongside better players at a more ambitious club.

Some Villa fans are excited with the links to Ward-Prowse – here is what they had to say.
