Aston Villa challenge Tottenham for West Ham midfielder Parker

Aston Villa are set to join the battle for West Ham United midfielder Scott Parker.

The Daily Mail says Villa are set to launch a £5million bid for Parker.

Manager Alex McLeish is making the bold move after Tottenham wavered.

Spurs chairman Daniel Levy is understood to be reluctant to offer wages of around £70,000-a-week for the 30-year-old.

However, Villa are exploring ways of presenting the Londoner with a suitable package.
