Aston Villa want to sign Spurs wonderkid on a permanent deal

Championship side Aston Villa want to tie down on loan Spurs youngster Josh Onomah on a permanent deal, admits Steve Bruce.

Onomah joined Villa on a season long loan deal in the summer transfer window. The 20-year-old midfielder has been in spectacular form this season for Bruce’s side and put in another stand out performance in Villa’s 2-1 victory over Fulham on Saturday. The win pushed the Birmingham side to fifth on the Championship table.

However, Bruce admits that he may have to ‘break the bank’ to sign the highly talented youngster.

“Josh Onomah was terrific today,” Bruce said, speaking after the game against Fulham.
