Aston Villa fans left baffled after owner posts bizarre transfer tweet in riddle of emojis
Doctor Tony Xia sparked a reaction from his own supporters just after the club were linked with John Terry
ASTON VILLA owner Dr. Tony Xia has left supporters baffled after posting a bizarre tweet.
Steve Bruce's side have been heavily linked with a shock move for free agent John Terry after he was spotted golfing with the gaffer.
And Xia has fuelled further speculation that something exciting will happen at the club with a strange equation of emojis.
The Midlands are also thought to be closing in on a deal for Stoke's veteran midfielder Glenn Whelan.
But it appears fans are no clearer in knowing who will be the first summer arrival at Villa Park despite Xia's strange cryptic clue.
One fan wrote, 'cba for this on a Monday after a long day just tell us pal' whilst another said 'Honestly mate don't know what planet he's on'.
Other replied with hilarious gifs such as confused Power Rangers and wrestlers to share their bemusement over the tweet.
