Norwich City star Todd Cantwell is the type of player Aston Villa like, journalist Luke Hatfield has told The Transfer Tavern.

Villa have already raided Norwich this summer for Argentine playmaker Emiliano Buendia and it looks like there shopping may not stop there.

According to The Telegraph, the Midlands club have been monitoring Cantwell as Dean Smith looks to bolster his midfield options.

Cantwell played a key role in Norwich's promotion success last season, with the 23-year-old featuring in 33 league games for Daniel Farke's side.

On Villa's reported interest in the player, Hatfield of the Express & Star said:

"Young, will have good resale value if they do bring him in and does know the Premier League - played in it for one season obviously with Norwich the year they ended up getting relegated.

"He's certainly the type of player I think they would like."

Villa are certainly not playing around this transfer window. As previously mentioned, they have already brought in Cantwell's former Norwich team-mate Buendia in a deal believed to be worth £40m in total.

The Villans have also made two bids for Arsenal's promising youngster Emile Smith Rowe, the latest thought to be in the region of £30m (per The Athletic).
