Tottenham supporters on Twitter are hopeful that Josh Onomah’s move to Aston Villa might be making space for the arrival of England midfielder Ross Barkley.

Onomah, who has made 32 senior appearances for Spurs, joined Championship club Villa on a season-long loan on Friday.

Tottenham fans were generally surprised that Onomah had been allowed to leave but speculated whether it may be to make room for Barkley, who is likely to leave Everton in this transfer window.

Villa fans were broadly optimistic about the arrival of Onomah, which adds to their strength in midfield.
