Aston Villa join race for Nahki Wells' signature

Aston Villa are understood to have joined Championship outfit Huddersfield in the race for the signature of Bradford City star striker Nahki Wells in January.

The talented Bermudian international has been in top form for the Bantams all season, and was one of the focus points of the club's success in the League Two last term, having scored 18 goals in 39 games for the promotion winning outfit.


Manager Paul Lambert has been having a close look at the talented forward, who produced a series of excellent displays during the club's run to the League Cup final last season, where they ended up second best to Swansea City as they were thrashed 5-0 at the Wembley.


However, the Villans will have to fight off interest from the Terriers, who are considered as favourites to land Wells' services at the present point of time.
