Aston Villa fans have been reacting on Twitter to the latest transfer update surrounding striker Olivier Giroud.
This comes after Villa fan Twitter account @AVFC_Religion shared a post on their page relaying information from @FCBW_A7 via Sport that Barcelona are now battling Villa for Giroud’s signature this month.
Should Villa still go for Giroud this month?
Yes
No
This post then gathered a number of replies from Villa fans who were eager to share their thoughts on this latest update.
Here’s a sample of Villa fans reacting to the post:
Welcome to Villa then!

According to Le 10 Sport (via The Daily Mail) The Frenchman, who has been previously linked with a move to Villa, has only made seven appearances for Chelsea in all competitions so far this season (per Transfermarkt). Now that it has been reported that Spanish giants Barcelona are interested in taking the striker this month, some Villa fans have been sharing their thoughts on the latest update.
Wait. Is that a joke?

What do we think?
This latest update in the Giroud transfer saga certainly caught the attention of a number of Villa fans. But whether they believe it or not is up to them. If Giroud does leave Chelsea this month, it will be interesting to see if he will be staying in England or moving elsewhere.
