Aston Villa reportedly keen on signing prolific striker

According to reports, Aston Villa are keen on sign Bournemouth striker Lewis Grabban.

The 29-year-old Grabban was sent on loan to Sunderland ahead of this season and despite the Black Cats struggling to avoid relegation, he has been in superb form, scoring 11 goals in the Championship.

Recent reports have suggested that Cherries boss Eddie Howe has decided to recall Grabban before deciding on what to do next.

With Bournemouth just three points above the relegation zone in the Premier League, it remains to be seen whether Howe will want to use Grabban to bolster his side or whether he will be keen to loan or sell him to Championship high-flyers Villa.

Villa are looking to sign a new striker in January with Jonathan Kodjia unavailable through injury. Considering his experience, form and proven ability to score goals, Grabban will be a good addition to the Villa side.
