According to a report in The Argus, Aston Villa are not looking to sell Keinan Davis this month.

Brighton & Hove Albion have been strongly linked with a move for the young forward in recent times, with Chris Hughton reportedly identifying him as a potential addition.

However, Villa are keen to hold on to Davis, as they feel he could develop into a future star.

Bruce has decided that he will not cash-in on the powerful forward, who has enjoyed a fine breakthrough season.

Davis has been handed a lot of responsibility at Villa this season, despite only being 19, due to a series of injuries to the claret and blues’ strikers.

Although Davis still needs to develop, Villa are keen to keep him around, and Bruce has decided to reject all offers for the youngster this month.
