Aston Villa fans react as Arsenal eye Ollie Watkins
A number of Aston Villa fans have taken to Twitter to comment on that Arsenalꦍ want Ollie Watkins.
What’s the story?
Watkins is one of the strikers that Ars♓enal are considering with Alexandre Lacazette likely to leave the Emirates within the next 12 months.
The Frenchman’s ൲£180,000-a-week deal expires at the end of the campaign.꧟ And he could even leave during the January transfer window if they want to receive some sort of fee for Lacazette.
that Watkins is a name on their radar. But they are also intereste🍒d in Dominic Calvert-Lewin.
Watkins has been an ins💖pired s☂igning for the Villans. The 25-year-old scored 14 times in his first season in the Premier League last term.
And he opened his account for th꧙is campaign with a goal against Tottenham at the weekend.
There has been an interesting response amongst Villa fans on social media amid reports that Arse💃nal want Watkins.
The large majorityꩲ have insisted that the Gunner🔥s need to be prepared to break the bank to take Watkins to the Emirates.
‘£100mill is the going rate’: Aston Villa fans react to Arsenal eyeing Watkins
Some have s🐓uggested that he should cost £100 🥃million. And few would clearly accept anything less than £75 million.
But interestingly, there ar👍e o✨thers who can see a move happening. Villa have obviously proved that they can bounce back from losing one of their best players this season.
And they clearly taꩲke confidence from the way Dean Smith’s men have reacted to selling Jack Grealish.
With that in mind, here is how some of the Aston Villa fans rea⛎cted to the links bet🧸ween Arsenal and Watkins…
England ౠstriker? £100mill is the going rate I believe (at 🤡least).

I think for the right price we let him go at the end of the season, if that price doesn’t come in then we 🎃keep him. We as a club don’t need to sell our star players, is Ollie Watkins a star player? Maybe he is maybe he isn’t, for where we want to go I’d say he isn’t.

Couldn’t afford him. If they paid £5♚0m for Ben White imagine what it would take 😂

Wouldn’t be surprised if he moved on, this was on th🍌e cards from the get go, we move forward if so. Happened before will happen again.

Just trying to get their own back for ESR 🤣

Not suꦛre why he’d want to take a step back, but if he does 100 mil seem to be the going rate. 😂
