The Villans paid a club-record fee to sign Ollie Watkins from Brentford earlier this month and the striker has made an impact on the pitch.
With Mbwana Samatta set to leave and Wesley out injured until the start of next year, Dean Smith is still short of goalscoring options.
For the moment, they are heavily dependent on Watkins and it has been claimed that the club are keen to bring in one more striker.
The Midlands club are working behind the scenes to identify another potential target and get a deal over the line.
With only two weeks left in the transfer window, Aston Villa are running out of time and the club are keen to bring in someone soon.
There were suggestions that the arrival of Bertrand Traore was the end of the Aston Villa’s incoming transfer business for the window.
But it has been claimed that the club are now actively working on signing another striker.
