Aston Villa fans gush over prospect of signing Kalvin Phillips from Leeds United

The feeling seems to be unanimous among Aston Villa fans after the news that the club are to launch a £14 million bid for Leeds United 's Kalvin Phillips.

The midfielder is a fan favourite at Elland Road after an incredible season under Marcelo Bielsa, with Leeds United fans dreading the news of a move away from the club for the 23-year-old.

Aston Villa secured promotion to the Premier League through the play-offs, days after the whites had suffered a cruching defeat at the hands of Derby County.

According to the Telegraph, Villa's scouting team watched Phillips play on a number of occasions last season, though Leeds will demand up to £20 million for him if talks happen.

Here's a look at the response from Villa fans as their side prepares for life back in the Premier League:
