Aston Villa are confident signing Everton winger Yannick Bolasie.

Birmingham Live says Villa could sign Bolasie on loan from Everton within the next 24 hours.

The Championship club have hijacked Middlesbrough's move for the Toffees winger.

And Bolasie favours a switch to Villa, having held talks with Steve Bruce.

Everton boss Marco Silva has encouraged the midfielder to leave this month.
