Josh King is currently Aston Villa’s most likely signing

The 28-year-old is yet to get off the mark in the Championship this season after missing a number of games through injury, however, the Norwegian has still made eight appearances this season for the Cherries.

Villa have signed strikers in each of the last three windows and after splashing out £28m on Ollie Watkins in September, spending even more does seem unlikely. 

 

Aston Villa Transfer Rumours: Who else is on their radar?

The bookmakers have also priced up Manchester United midfielder and England International Jesse Lingard to swap Old Trafford for Villa Park this transfer window as a long shot at 16/1.

The 28-year-old has been linked to a number of clubs as plenty of rumours around Lingard have been circulating that he wants more game time having fallen out of the first team over the last two seasons.

With the injury record of Ross Barkley and number of clubs sniffing around Jack Grealish signing another creative midfielder may not be the worst of ideas for the Villa boss.
