Aston Villa boss Steve Bruce is in the hunt for Burnley winger George Boyd.

The Express & Star says Bruce is keen on talking to Boyd.

Thought to be an admirer of the 31-year-old, Bruce is apparently keen to bring in the Scot, after he rejected a deal to stay at Turf Moor.

Derby are also thought to be interested, so Villa will need to battle to secure his services for next season.
