Aston Villa are reported to have joined the race to sign Austria striker Sanel Kuljic. Two other Premiership clubs, Everton and Fulham, are also interested in the player who currently plays for Austrian side SV Ried. With the transfer window finally open again, David O'Leary has reiterated his desire to bolster his squad and with only four first-team strikers currently in the ranks, more competition upfront is a must.

Although O'Leary has not openly admitted his interest in the striker, it is believed that Kuljic has caught the eye of the Villa boss and with the Austrian international currently playing in the little-known Austrian top-flight, Villa could sign the striker for a bargain price.
