Aston Villa took their total signings this summer to 14 earlier today.
Villa have been far more active than any other Premier League side in the transfer market, with 14 new players arriving.
Villa announced the arrivals of Marvelous Nakamba and Tom Heaton this morning, but they are still reportedly not finished.
The Express and Star claim that Dean Smith wants to bring in another striker before the beginning of the campaign.
Whether Villa view that striker as a starter or as back-up is unclear yet, but it seems more likely they will come is as a covering option.
Villa have already snapped up Wesley for big money, so it would be a shock if he was not the main man up-front next season.
Smith’s biggest challenge at Villa will be ensuring that all his new signings gel quickly.
The sheer scale of the change at Villa Park has been impressive, but it is unquestionably a risk too.
Smith is going to have to bring his team together rapidly, as Villa cannot afford to start slowly.
If the claret and blues do sign a new striker he will bolster their forward options, with Wesley, Scott Hogan and Jonathan Kodjia already at the club.
Villa begin their season next weekend, when they take on Tottenham Hotspur.
