Aston Villa boss Steve Bruce hopes to sign Everton winger Yannick Bolasie in the next few days.

Bruce snapped up Lille winger Anwar El Ghazi on loan on Wednesday and he wants to add Bolasie as soon as possible.

Bruce said: "If we can put the icing on the cake with Bolasie tomorrow then it's exactly what we're looking for.

"He was here [at Villa Park watching the game] and we hope we can tie it up. The one thing we haven't got - with the injuries we have - is anything up the top end of the pitch if we need to change things. He'll give us that."
