Aston Villa fans on Twitter have been responding to the latest transfer rumour surrounding the club.
This comes after Villa fan Twitter account @villareport shared a post on their page relaying news originally published in a report by Turkiye Gazetesi.
The report claims that Villa manager Dean Smith has made Besiktas defender Domagoj Vida his top target ahead of the upcoming summer transfer window.
This post then gathered a lot of replies from Villa fans who were quick to share their reactions to this latest development.
Here’s a sample of Villa fans responding to the post:

If he is our top target, this summer is going to be massively underwhelming.

This isn’t the type of signing Smith would make tbh.

Last transfer window would’ve been nice

Would you want Villa to sign Vida this summer?
Yes
No
The 31-year-old, who is currently valued at £5.85 million according to Transfermarkt, has been a regular figure for Besiktas this season, having made 32 appearances for the club across all competitions (per Transfermarkt). Now that it has been reported that Vida is a top transfer target for Villa this summer, this news did not go down too well on Twitter with these Villa fans.

We need to concentrate on staying up first

Seems we are linked with every player in Turkey and Turkish clubs are linked with all of ours! Utter rubbish

What do we think?
It appears that these Villa fans are not fully taken with the idea of the club signing Vida this summer.
