Aston Villa have been linked with a move for Plymouth Argyle goalkeeper Michael Cooper in recent days.

And a number of Villa supporters have been sharing their thoughts on the transfer news on social media.

According to Football League World on Thursday, Villa are one of numerous Premier League and Championship clubs keeping tabs on the 21-year-old.

Top-flight sides Brentford and Southampton, along with Championship outfits Birmingham City, Coventry City, Sheffield United and West Brom are the sides who could rival Villa for the shot-stopper.

Cooper has impressed at Home Park in League One this season, keeping five clean sheets in nine appearances in all competitions.

Plymouth boss Ryan Lowe has previously stated that he feels Cooper is ‘going to the top’, and it appears as if he is catching the eye of a number of teams in the top two divisions.

“We were definitely after an 'understudy' keeper earlier in the summer with a bid for Oxford United's Jack Stevens turned down. Cooper is a very similar profile, young but with lots of games under his belt at League One level.”
