Reported all over social media 5m bid has been made?

Anyone know anything about him?

From“getreading“, looks like a deal is in the works...............Godzvilla!

" Reading FC have accepted a £5 million bid from Aston Villa for Aaron Tshibola .
The midfielder has now travelled up to the Midlands to discuss personal terms - with a deal expected to be completed this week.
Boss Jaap Stam did not want to lose Tshibola, something he made clear last week when he faced the media at Hogwood Park.
But getreading understands Tshibola has since told the club that he wants to move to Villa Park, forcing Royals to reluctantly accept the offer.
Steve Clarke - who gave Tshibola his Reading debut - is now assistant manager at Aston Villa and is a huge fan of the 21-year-old.
Crystal Palace, Celtic and Norwich City have also been linked with the Madejski Stadium academy product, but Villa look to have won the race ".

i've just asked my Reading mate........

"You're probably paying about £4m too much" was the reply.

Maybe sour grapes, make of that what you will!!

John Percy and the BM reporting it now too.

Looks a really promising signing and, more than that, hopefully a sign of the type of player we're going after this summer, i.e a young, up-and-coming player but one who's already shown that he's capable of making an impact at this level. My biggest fear was that we were going to carry-on down the same route of giving Premier League has-beens a final payday in the hope that they'd be able to do a job in the Championship (e.g. Steven Fletcher).

Sounds like a similar type of player to Gana.

Only played 13 games for Reading, apparently injured a lot but quite a few Royals fans were saying he has huge potential so who knows.

More of a defensive central mid-fielder, at 6ft 3 in he could be the “big unit“we“ve been looking for , ....Godzvilla!

Apparently Norwich bid £2m a couple of weeks ago and it was excepted. Not sure what happened after that. Unless Clarke had put the feelers out for RDM?
He's only been back from injury just over a month but is very highly regarded, even if had only made 13 or so appearances for Reading.
Could be the next Tayls. Seems a similar type of player.

£5m is a big ticket for a young and inexperienced player ....
bit like Traore in terms of financial risk.

I suppose if Gana goes for around 7/8 million , this might be the replacement .

I bet it would be 5m if he or we hit certain targets. It will be so much up front and a bunch of clauses including a promotion pay out to Reading.

6ft 3" it would seem. I have never heard of him I must admit. Yet to score in the league including loans but Steve Clarke must see talent in him.
