Aston Villa are making enquiries about Juventus midfielder Denis Zakaria.
The Swiss international was on loan at Chelsea last season, but struggled with injury issues.
The 26-year-old was not a regular starter and has now gone back to Juve, who are eager to sell him.
According to Gazzetta dello Sport, negotiations are happening between Juve and West Ham over a sale.
However, Villa are among the teams who have asked to be kept informed about Zakaria’s availability.
Whether Villa want to sign him at all costs, or would turn to him if they lose midfielder Douglas Luiz, is yet to be seen.
