Aston Villa have rejected a £1.5m bid from Reading for midfielder Leandro Bacuna, according to Sky sources.
Sky Sports News understands Reading have now ended their interest in the 25-year-old and will turn their attentions to other targets.
Bacuna featured for Villa in their pre-season goalless draw against Watford on Saturday, replacing the injured Jack Grealish in the 26th minute.
The Curacao international made 31 appearances last season as Villa ended their first campaign in the Sky Bet Championship in 13th place.
Bacuna joined Villa from Dutch side Groningen in 2013 and has since featured over 120 times for the club, scoring eight goals.
He has three years remaining on his current deal at Villa Park.
