Aston Villa eyeing Jordan Jones

Aston Villa are reportedly keen on Northern Ireland international Jordan Jones.

According to a report from the Daily Mail, the Championship outfit have been sending scouts to watch the impressive winger in action recently.

The 23-year-old played for the majority of Northern Ireland’s friendly match against Korea Republic on Saturday and, with Villa’s scouts in attendance for the clash.

It seems Jones performed impressively enough to convince Villa of his qualities, with the promotion-hopefuls now eyeing a summer move for the Kilmarnock star.

Jones is not likely to stay in Scotland for much longer. It’s stated by the Mail that he recently rejected Kilmarnock’s latest contract offer, meaning that his deal is likely to run down at the end of next season.

However, with Jones’ stock only increasing at this stage, the Scottish side could be tempted to cash in as interest from England intensifies.

Villa will face competition from Brighton, too, if the Mail are to be believed, with the Seagulls’ scouts also having been left impressed by Jones’ display for his country.
