Aston Villa’s October appointment of Steve Bruce could turn out to prove an absolute masterstroke at the end of the season.

Unbeaten in five Championship games since he took over last month, the Villans are still far away from where they’d like to be but now 14th in the table, Bruce has immediately installed some resilience.

With Roberto Di Matteo having spent big in the summer, Aston Villa have struggled for goals for the most part this term with Jonathan Kodjia (6 goals) trying his best while Ross McCormack hasn’t been his usual prolific self.

As is the case with any new manager arriving into the fold, expect Steve Bruce to try and put his own stamp on this Aston Villa squad in the New Year with the January transfer window on the horizon.

The Villans’ squad is actually quite large and with some players unfancied under Bruce so far and others in and out of the team, we feel Bruce may try to bring in some of his own players to replace them.

With that in mind, This Is Futbol have today devised a list of FIVE players who we believe Aston Villa will target in the forthcoming January transfer window.
