Olympiakos are seeking talks with Aston Villa for Jean II Makoun.
The Daily Mail says Olympiakos are trying to sign Aston Villa midfielder Makoun on loan.
The 28-year-old only joined Villa from Lyon in January for £6.2million and has made just seven appearances.
Villa, who remain keen on West Ham's Scott Parker and watched Celtic's Beram Kayal last week, would prefer a permanent deal and the Greeks are willing to talk over a loan now with view to signing him in the summer.
