Aston Villa receive £7m offer for striker Jonathan Kodjia?

Qatari side Al-Gharafa want Aston Villa striker Jonathan Kodjia and have reportedly made a £7m bid to secure his services by Tuesday.

Aston Villa have reportedly received an offer of £7m from Qatari side Al-Gharafa for striker Jonathan Kodjia.

The Ivorian has scored 29 goals in 98 games for Dean Smith's side since moving to the West Midlands from Bristol City in 2017 for £15m.

According to Football Insider, Al-Gharafa, who are currently managed by former Fulham and Watford boss Slavisa Jokanovic, are chasing the 29-year-old after missing out on Everton's Cenk Tosun.

The Qatari side want to get a deal completed by Tuesday and while Smith will be reluctant to let Kodjia leave without securing a replacement, the striker is out of contract at the end of this season.

The former Amiens forward has played just 26 minutes of football for Villa this season and is currently out injured with a fracture cheekbone suffered in a training ground collision with Marvelous Nakamba.
