Aston Villa are hoping to secure promotion back to the Premier League.
After a challenging time last season, matters are looking rather more positive for Aston Villa now, with the club seeking to secure a place in the Championship play-offs.
As they look to get back into the Premier League, Aston Villa may well seek to strengthen in the January transfer window, but in which position are they most in need of a new signing?
Although Albert Adomah has been a useful source of goals from out wide, Aston Villa would certainly benefit from bringing in a new striker, especially as Jonathan Kodjia needs to be given time to regain full sharpness once he recovers from injury.
Youngster Keinan Davis has produced some encouraging performances up front but can’t be described as prolific, while Scott Hogan has struggled in front of goal.
A clinical goalscorer could well make the difference in Aston Villa’s promotion push, and the club have been linked with a move for Lewis Grabban, as reported by The Daily Express.
Grabban has scored eleven goals in 18 Championship appearances while on loan at Sunderland last season and his parent club Norwich City have the option of selling him permanently in January.
Villa should definitely attempt to bring in Grabban given that he has shown he can find the net with regularity in the Championship.
