# Who Will Villa Sign? Here Are The Bookies’ Odds

Every single day, a new player is added to the list of players Aston Villa are supposedly interested in.

January is never really a busy time at Villa Park, but this year, due to deficiencies in some key positions, they were expected to bring in a number of players to strengthen the squad.

However, we are now more than half way through January and the only player Villa have brought in is Sam Johnstone on loan from Manchester United.

Steve Bruce has identified his targets – Herni Lansbury and Conor Hourihane – and the bookmakers believe that these two players are almost guaranteed to become Villa players by the end of the month; so much so, that you will be hard pushed to find one who give you odds on the pair.

But what about everyone else? Well, the [Birmingham Mail](https://www.birminghammail.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/who-aston-villa-sign-transfer-12464353) took the time to trawl the internet to find the odds being given to some of the names that have been linked with a possible move to Villa Park. Some of these will surprise you (and are highly unlikely), while others have been on your mind since the transfer window opened. Here is what they found:
