Aston Villa striker Ollie Watkins has said that he will let his football do the talking amid interest from Arsenal and Chelsea.
The England international has been touted to leave the Villans for a bigger challenge and it has been claimed that he is on the radar of the London giants.
Both clubs could make transfers bids for him in the New Year, but Watkins has insisted that he is only focused on what happens on the pitch.
He told TNT Sports: “I just try and let my football do the talking. My goal is to score goals and help the team win. What happens off the pitch is separate.”
“It was a good performance from us. We bounced back here and they play some good stuff so it is a great result.”
Watkins has netted seven goals in the current campaign and this includes two hat-tricks against Brighton & Hove Albion and Hibernian.
The Villans have jumped to fifth on the table after the win, and reports claim that they are eager to commit the striker to a new contract.
