Aston Villa are set to sign Liverpool utility player Fabio Aurelio on a free transfer and are firm favourites to land Spurs' Robbie Keane, reports the Daily Mirror. Brazilian Aurelio, is a Bosman after rejecting a pay-as-you-play deal at Anfield following a torrid time with injuries.
O'Neill is also poised to move for Spurs striker Keane once Villa have raised funds by selling James Milner to Man City.
Villa owner Randy Lerner has introduced a sell-to-buy policy following record losses of £43.7m last year.
Villa could afford Keane's £60,000-a-week wages as it is in line with their salary structure.
