Tottenham fans react as Ollie Watkins joins Aston Villa

As reported by Sky Sports, Aston Villa have signed striker Ollie Watkins, who was linked with Tottenham, in a club record £28m deal from EFL Championship side Brentford.

The 24-year-old had emerged as a potential target for Tottenham Hotspur with the club keen on recruiting a striker as backup for Harry Kane. However, Villa have beaten the North Londoners to the punch, snapping up the Englishman’s signing.

As per the report, Villa shelled out an initial £28m for Watkins which could rise to £33m with add-ons. The 24-year-old has signed a five-year contract with the club.

However, it is Villa who have snapped up the Englishman and a large section of Tottenham supporters were left disappointed and frustrated with the outcome of this transfer race. Here we bring you some of the reactions from the fans on the news.
