Aston Villa step up interest in Bournemouth winger Brooks

Aston Villa could be about to get serious with their desire to sign Bournemouth star David Brooks.

The winger was the subject of interest from Manchester United in the summer, but no move materialised.

Brooks may be someone Villa are looking at securing for next season, when they lose Ross Barkley, whose one year loan from Chelsea would run out.

The Welshman is enjoying a good season in the Championship with the Cherries, and talksPORT journalist Alex Crook reckons Villa want to sign him.

Cook said: "One player [Aston Villa] are keen on is Bournemouth's, David Brooks.

"I think it would take a big bid to persuade the Cherries to sell Brooks - he's a massive part of their own bid to get back into the Premier League.

"But I can see why Dean Smith would be looking at him.

"Villa have done really well recruiting from the EFL with the likes of [Ezri] Konsa and Ollie Watkins.

"This would be a show of ambition and proof they mean business."
