Aston Villa have been heavily linked with a move for Glasgow Rangers striker Alfredo Morelos, but doubts remain whether the Ibrox club will offload him in January.
Dean Smith’s side find themselves 16th in the Premier League after 11 games, three points above the drop zone. Summer signing Wesley has taken time to adapt to the league, while Jonathan Kodjia is still not fully fit. Therefore, signing a striker is necessary for Villa.
With that in mind, Villa must put all their effort into signing Mbwana Samatta from Genk.
During the summer transfer window, The Sun claimed that Villa were interested in securing the services of the 26-year-old who would cost in the region of £12 million.
