Aston Villa eye move for Craig Dawson
According to a report from the Sunday People, as covered by Birmingham Live, West Brom defender Craig Dawson is attracting the interest of Aston Villa.
The Baggies are currently having a torrid time in the Premier League and Dawson is one of many of their players who could look to move on when relegation to the Championship is confirmed.
With Villa battling it out for promotion from the Championship, they are looking to bolster their ranks ahead of next season and if they go up, they are likely to bid for Dawson.
Dawson has been at West Brom since 2010 and has made 143 appearances for the Baggies. He has turned out 25 times so far this season, contributing two goals.
He would add vast Premier League experience, quality and would give Villa another solid option at centre-back if they do decide to make a bid.
If Albion are relegated, which looks likely, we can probably expect a fire-sale of the club’s top talent.
