In response to Luton’s promotion, Aston Villa fans took to social media to express their views on Nakamba’s success with his loan club. Some fans suggested that a permanent move should occur in the summer transfer window, with a possible transfer fee of £15 million for the Zimbabwean midfielder.
The successful promotion of Luton Town means that the team will be visiting Villa Park next season. It remains to be seen whether a permanent deal will be signed, but Nakamba’s contribution to Luton’s promotion has certainly not gone unnoticed.
