Galatasaray boss Hagi chasing Villa skipper Petrov

Aston Villa skipper Stilyan Petrov is a target for Galatasaray.

The People says the Turkish giants made an enquiry about Petrov during the January transfer window - and will be back with a summer bid.

Galatasaray boss Gheorghe Hagi instructed his No.2, the former Blackburn star Tugay, to make the running for Petrov last month.

And although Tugay was told that Gerard Houllier had no intention of selling his captain in mid-season, the 31-year-old could yet be on his way out of Villa Park in June.
