Aston Villa are the favourites to capture the signature of ex-Siena and Udinese playmaker Gaetano D’Agostino.
The 32 year old Italian international is currently a free agent after terminating his contract with Siena at the end of the last season, and is entitled to move to a club outside the transfer window.
Tuttomercatoweb report that Aston Villa boss Paul Lambert is an admirer of the deep-lying playmaker, and may make a concrete move soon.
Also following D’Agostino are two unnamed Turkish clubs, so the English side may have to move quickly if they are to tie up the former Italian international.
D’Agostino scored four goals in 16 Serie B appearances for Siena last season.
