Aston Villa will reportedly go toe to toe with Burnley and Everton as they bid to sign Joe Bryan from Bristol City this summer.
According to a report from the Mirror, Steve Bruce’s side are interested in a deal to land Bryan from the Championship outfit ahead of next season, with plans being made for the summer transfer window.
Villa could secure promotion to the Premier League next weekend with a win in the play-off final against Fulham at Wembley Stadium. If they do indeed come out victorious, it seems a new left-back will be targeted.
It’s claimed that Lee Johnson’s side are resigned to the inevitability that Bryan will move away from Ashton Gate this summer, as Premier League clubs circle for his signature.
Bryan enjoyed an impressive season with Bristol City and it comes as no surprise to see him linked with a move away ahead of what promises to be an intriguing summer transfer window.
