The Sun have actually asserted that Villa want the Brighton and Hove Albion protector as Dean Smith aims to strengthen his backline.

As a youngster, it won't be a shock to hear that centre-back Dunk tried to imitate Villa's senior number John Terry in the park.

With Villa eager on Dunk's services, much like Tyrone Mings in January, Terry's impact as well as existence at Villa can potentially result in an additional admirer of his signing up with the club.

" I viewed Terry from a young age and I made use of to pretend to be him in the park with my companions," Dunk told the Daily Mail in 2015.

" He likes defending-- he likes to play, as well, yet didn't mind pushing his body in the method of a shot as well as getting pain."

As a player, Terry is considered among the most effective, otherwise the most effective centre-backs to have actually played throughout the Premier League era, with the previous Champions League victor now functioning along with Dean Smith at Villa.

It is currently looking like he is going beyond that into monitoring since he has played his component in Villa's quick rise back to the paradise.

After the broken heart of losing the play-off final last May to Fulham, Terry played his component on the training pitch as well as on the sidelines as the present plant crossed the line this time around.
