Aston Villa are eyeing Liverpool striker Fabio Borini.

The Express & Star says Villa may offer Borini the chance to leave the Reds once again, either on loan or in a permanent move.

The 24-year-old Italian scored against Villa earlier in the season but has, again, found game time hard to come by back at his parent club.

Borini did show potential when Sunderland borrowed him last season and Villa, with boss Tim Sherwood looking for rough diamonds, may decide to take a punt.
