Where next for 'whinging' John McGinn? Man Utd and Tottenham lead the race
The Scotland international has played an integral part for Aston Villa over the past four seasons but now could be the time for him to move on.
But there are now reports suggesting that Steven Gerrard is open to letting McGinn leave the club with the Villa boss fed up of him 'whinging' behind the scenes.
Should Villa let the midfielder go then there will not be a shortage of teams wanting to sign him, and below we look at the possible sides he could join.
Manchester United
The Red Devils are crying out for someone like McGinn. Since Sir Alex Ferguson retired, Man Utd have struggled to challenge for a league title let alone win one.
A big issue for United has been in midfield. Paul Pogba was a liability, Nemanja Matic didn't have the legs while Scott McTominay and Fred just don't cut it for a team wanting to win major trophies.
Tottenham
Antonio Conte is currently bolstering his Spurs side ahead of their Champions League quest for 2022/23.
Yves Bissouma has only just walked through the door, but Conte is also admirer of McGinn and would be open to signing him after turning down the chance to sign Paulo Dybala.
The big question is, will Daniel Levy cough up £50million or more to get the Scot? That answer is no - especially when there are other areas where Tottenham need to strengthen more.
Liverpool
Klopp even spoke to his fellow Scottish international Andy Robertson after being impressed by his workrate.
Newcastle
Eddie Howe has a huge budget for the summer and have already signed one Aston Villa player in Matty Targett.
But would McGinn want to join a club which is still a few years away from a Champions League spot at the age of 27?
