Aston Villa are planning a loan move for Liverpool striker Rhian Brewster.

The Mirror says Brewster is a loan target for several clubs in January — with Aston Villa leading the race.

Reds boss Jurgen Klopp revealed on Friday that he was willing to let the 19-year-old go out for the second half of the season to get more first-team football. Villa boss Dean Smith wants Brewster to add another option up front.

But he faces competition from Crystal Palace boss Roy Hodgson as well as Championship outfits Leeds and Swansea.

Brewster has failed to break into the Liverpool first-team at the start of this season, making only two starts, both of them coming in the Carabao Cup.
