Marco Asensio is one of a number of attacking players Aston Villa are eyeing as Unai Emery looks to bolster his squad before the transfer window closes on February 3.
Villa need reinforcements as leading goalscorer Jhon Duran is closing on completing a £64.5million move to Al-Nassr.
Asensio has been on Villa's watchlist for some time now and it is understood that the Midlands club are confident that agreeing a deal to sign him on loan would be fairly straightforward.
The 29-year-old Spain international is currently under contract with Paris Saint-Germain until June 2026.
