Olympiakos locked in Makoun talks with Aston Villa

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.
