Istanbul Basaksehir are moving for Aston Villa striker Bertrand Traore.

Turkish media sources say Traore is a loan target for Istanbul Basaksehir.

The Turks are seeking a loan with the option to buy arrangement.

Traore joined Villa under then boss Dean Smith two years ago but struggled to nail down a regular first team place due to periods of injury and loss of form.

The 26-year-old has scored seven times in 45 appearances for Villa since joining in a £17million switch from French giants Lyon.
