Aston Villa may have already signed Mbwana Samatta this January transfer window, but they are still on the lookout for another striker before the deadline.

The feeling that another recruit is needed comes after Jonathan Kodjia's exit this month and Wesley's season-ending injury.

It has been reported by Fanatik [via Sport Witness], that they are now offering €5m (£4.2m) for Trabzonspor striker Daniel Sturridge.

There are some fans who seem to be content with the signing, even if it might be because there aren't better options, with one saying "beggars can't be choosers".

While there are those who have become genuinely excited about the potential signing, with one feeling he is "quality" and another claiming he could turn out to be a "bargain".

Did he really play for us?! No Villa fan has managed to name all of these obscure Villans....

Sturridge has been impressing in Turkey this campaign and across eight starts and three substitute appearances in the league and cup, the Englishman has recorded seven goals and four assists.

However, not everyone is thrilled with the idea of signing the 30-year-old, with one exclaiming that they "want Giroud".

His injury record will also not help him, as the Englishman has already picked up seven minor injuries since arriving in Turkey, which have seen him sit out a total of 17 games.

To make things even worse, they could have signed him for free during the summer if they had got in ahead of the Turkish outfit.

Meanwhile, a Villa man would be seriously foolish if they accept a proposed move away from the club.
