Newell's Old Boys striker Joaquín Boghossian is being linked with Aston Villa.
The Argentine forward is expected to move to Europe before the winter market closes across Europe.
The Birmingham Mail says reports in Russia have also claimed that Villa, along with Lokomotiv Moscow, Espanyol, Bayer Leverkusen and Sampdoria, have enquired about 22-year-old target-man Boghossian.
